What this tells us: firstly, we’ve got to stop making the assumption that Tiger’s ripped physique means he’s yards better than the rest with the big stick (he’s actually ranked tied 38th alongside Robert Allenby and Lucas Glover with an almost girly 289 yards). Secondly, a gigantic salute to Freddie Couples, who keeps booming them off the tee box even with a bad back. We get the feeling you won’t be asking the question ‘Dustin who?’ for too long, after decent finishes in his first handful of tour events. And finally, check out Lee Westwood’s 989 place leap up the charts.
