Tommy Fleetwood a Contender if his Putter Cooperates at The Masters
Tommy Fleetwood continues his strong form, recording his fourth top-10 finish in his last five starts at the Valero Texas Open last week. He now heads to The Masters, where he has made eight straight cuts, including a T3 and T21 in his last two appearances. Fleetwood's game sets up well for Augusta, ranking 14th in total strokes gained, 28th on approach, and 32nd off the tee, all key areas at this course. The only real concern is the putter. He ranks 120th and is losing strokes on the greens, including in each of his last three events, though he has gained strokes putting here in four of eight measured appearances. He also lacks elite power, ranking 117th in driving distance, but has still found success at Augusta, largely on the back of strong around-the-green play. Fleetwood's form and tee-to-green play make him a solid option, but his chances of contending will likely come down to whether the putter cooperates.
