Thomas Pieters May Attempt to Outmuscle TPC Kuala Lumpur
6 years agoWhile history has proven that any style of game can win at TPC Kuala Lumpur, Thomas Pieters' usual route of outmuscling the course may be the more difficult path to take. Fairways gained will be a significant statistic to monitor in Malaysia this weekend, and the big-hitting Belgian grades out just 67th out of 78 players over his last 50 rounds. Because of his volatility off the tee, Pieters may find himself in more trouble than the course is meant to provide. The 26-year-old competed at the CIMB Classic last season, finishing in a share of 44th place. It will be interesting to see if the often erratic Pieters takes the same bomb-and-gouge approach or if he will attempt to play a more subdued version of golf this weekend.
