Re: US PGA Tour 2018
Masters is played on one of the most difficult courses and Shubhankar just missed the cut. WGC Mexico was another difficult course where he led for majority of the time.Saniapower wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 5:20 pm Shubhankar yet to learn many basic things of golfing essential to conquer the difficult courses.

I agree it’s difficult on PGA Tour playing 2-3 events on invitation...to get used to the conditions. SS is just 21 and he has lots of time to learn.

Re: US PGA Tour 2018
Anirban has been struggling for a lot more than a couple of months, and Shubhankar does not have the game (yet) for the long US mainland courses.

Re: US PGA Tour 2018
This is a big learning curve for Shubhankar and he will going to learn from these failures ... He is just 21 yrs old.
Anirban fought back to score 4 under round to make cut ... In the 2nd round, he had 6 birdies and 2 bogeys.
At $6.2M Valero Texas Open 2018, San Antonio, Texas, USA
T48 Anirban Lahiri (IND) 76 68 PAR
-------------- CUT @ +1 --------------
Shubhankar Sharma (IND) 76 73 +5

Re: US PGA Tour 2018
Yes, their biggest problems is that the US courses are longer and they are average of the tee. I think US pga greens are also pretty fast, so that is a double whammy when you are hitting longer irons into the greens. There isn't a easy solution for either except using and learning to control their drivers on more of the holes.

Re: US PGA Tour 2018
Anirban with a disastrous 5 over par on day-1.
Long overdue that he goes back and plays easier tournaments on the European/Asian tour to get some of the mojo back.

Re: US PGA Tour 2018
Anirban’s slump continues. Will move out of top 100 in world rankings. Seems like he has lost confidence.. Hardly takes advantage of the PAR 5’s and makes too many mistakes in alternate rounds after a good round. Needs few good finishes soon to secure his card without having that pressure in the last few events. Hope he puts together solid 4 rounds soon!!
