(February 28, 2021) – Team TaylorMade's Collin Morikawa captures the WGC-Workday Championship at The Concession, FL and moves inside the Top 5 in the OWGR. © Getty Images Collin recently switched to TaylorMade's new 2021 TP5 ball and the company's new Spider FCG putter at the first event of the year - Sentry TOC in Maui, HI. He is also playing the company's new SIM2 fairway wood.

He’s the best ball striker on tour. The Taylor made equipment staff said his approach to the game and mindset during tournaments is the closest to Tiger that they’ve ever seen. They said Collin is every bit the competitor, but somehow does it with a much more laid back attitude He and Hovland have jumped into my must watch list.

I thought hovland was going to be the best of the 3 that hit the tour last year because morikawa’s putting was a weak point and as much of a Wolff fan I am his short game and putting were weak.

tchat07 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I think the most impressive thing about him is he has ever category of the game covered. His weakest part of his game is his putting and he goes with a grip change and goes out and wins, while making some lengthy par putts.Sent from my SM-G950U using MyGolfSpy mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shapotomous Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Hopefully for him this putting stroke will stick. It seems to me having to make periodic changes to a putting stroke would be bad news for consistently winning. Feherty zinged Zinger pretty good in yesterdays broadcast when they were talking about Morikawa getting a chipping lesson from him. After the second hole in a row where CW chose to use a hybrid or fairway to run the ball up to the pin rather than chipping it, he said CM must have been REAL impressed with Zingers lesson!!
