Lack of Distance Off the Tee Hurts Webb Simpson's Chances at Augusta
7 years agoSince the Masters Tournament Committee lengthened the course in 2001 and again in 2005, it is crucial to have distance off the tee at Augusta National. Webb Simpson is currently ranked 130th on the PGA Tour in driving distance. This lack of length off the tee has hurt Simpson at the Masters, as he's missed three out of six cuts since 2012. The 2012 U.S. Open champion has two top-fives on the PGA Tour in 2018 and is priced at $7,300 on DraftKings.
