However, she believes that large short game skills and experienced course management can always help her face in a place where the director general of the USGA, Mike Whan, defended the driver test process which has become a major subject of discussion at the recent PGA.
A report according to which the driver of Rory McILroy was considered non -compliant was not confirmed by the player or the officials, but the simple mention of his name led to a massive coverage of a routine procedure.
The possible winner Scottie Scheffler, who then admitted that he was one of the players who had to replace a pilot who is not in accordance with Quail Hollow, called for more “robust” tests.
But an assertion of the former champion of the United States Lucas Glover that some players actually cheat by submitting their rescue pilots in these tests rather than their first choice clubs means that the problem remains a hot topic.
“I tried to think all morning and all day to say that without ringing as it was going to sound,” Glover told Siriusxm on Monday.
“But most guys don’t give them their real driver anyway. They give them their backup in case. No, that’s right.”
Whan said that the USGA had no concerns about players who fudder the rules and that the only unusual thing in the PGA was excessive coverage – caused by the flight from McILroy.
“Eighty percent of the drivers who were given to us in these training facilities … are played on the first TEE, and we expect 10% of players to bring changes anyway,” said Whan. “I don’t think it’s a real concern for us.”
McILroy jumps on the commemorative tournament this week, where Shane Lowry will try to prevent Scheffler from keeping the title.
But it is not only a driving distance, but to draw all the elements of his game, it is the great concern of Maguire, who fell from 31 to 80th to the world in the last 12 months.
“I have not completely gathered every piece and the same week,” said Maguire. “Some good improvements on the TEE. Some weeks, I put, some weeks, I did not do it.
“And then my approach game just needs to store a little. So I’m just trying to bring all the pieces of the saw for the same week. It would be good to do this this week.” She will need her a match at 6829 yards Erin Hills.
“I think long strikers will have an advantage,” said Maguire. “But around the Greens is so delicate.” Precision will also be very important. Lack a green by one foot, and you could be 70 meters away with some of the streams.
“Many things are more to do with the Bogeys that you do not do, rather than the birdies you do. No one has made a ton of birdies, so it’s just very, very patient and very disciplined.”
