Jason Dufner Continues to Struggle
7 years agoJason Dufner's struggles continued this week at the RBC Heritage. Dufner shot a one-over to miss his third cut in his last four events. Dufner got off to a hot start on both Thursday and Friday by birdying two of his first three holes. Unfortunately, his success did not last for long on either day, as he sprinkled in bogeys throughout the rest of his round. Statistically, Dufner was not horrible. He gained 1.863 strokes on his approach shots and 1.442 strokes tee to green. His shaky putter reared its ugly head again, though. Dufner lost negative-2.668 strokes putting to the field. When Dufner is rolling, he is carried by his approach game that starts sticking everything within feet of the pin. When Dufner is off, it usually stems from his putter going wonky. Putting is a hard stat to gauge from week to week as it is, so it is anyone's guess for when Dufner will miraculously start making some putts again.
