Chez Reavie Might Struggle at the British Open
3 years agoThough Chez Reavie had a nice top-20 finish this weekend at the John Deere Classic, the Open and links golf is a different challenge. The only thing Reavie can excel at which will help is driving accuracy. He ranks fourth on tour at 72.9%. Reavie will have to hit greens early and putt well. That will be just to make the weekend. His short drives and off the tee abilities may hurt him more than most at Royal St. George. When one loses nearly half a stroke gained putting, it is never good. Worse, putting with links golf features so many bumps and worse. This could be a tough challenge for Reavie.
