I used to LOVE his swing......this week though all I could think of was how he seems to have one of the straightest right arms at address. It looks so weird now, I guess I'm a full member of the cult

I agree. He was out of his comfort zone. After 9 I thought he might be ok but on 10 he got tight and quick. BUT, the drive didn't kill him. He still could have made bogey but he compounded his mistake off the tee by going way left and whacking a tree by the green. A couple of mechanical errors with a couple of mental/strategy errors and the tournament was over. Remember, he made 5 on the 2nd hole after catching the lip from the sand. If he makes 5 on the 10th he is still right there with some birdie chances ahead. It wasn't mechanics that did him in. I sure hope he can learn from this and get back up there in a major soon.
