Over the 2 days we also worked with Simon Dyson. Simon asked if we could help after struggling on the green recently. He seemed happy at the close of practice on Wednesday and looking forward to an event he won 2 years ago on the same course.
This week Per Ulrik Johanson picked up a Carolyne Long Putter, which I have a feeling will be in play this week. He was really pleased with it and felt it rolled the ball a lot better than the previous long putter he was using. Per’s stroke using the long putter also looked a lot better than the data we took at Wentworth with the SAM Puttlab when he was using a short putter. He took a lot of confidence from that.
Once again did some work with Peter Fowler using the SAM Puttlab. Based on the data from the puttlab we tested if a face balanced putter, as Pete has been using a toe heavy putter, would suit him better. The face balanced putter came out with better stats.
Also met and chatted with Alex Noren this week. I have noticed Alex before and how well he has done since coming out on tour last year, but we have never spoke. Alex wanted to get his stroke analysed on the SAM Puttllab, which we duly obliged, passing on a few insights at the same time.
