The Outlook
Outside of a random sixth-place finish at the U.S. Open, which mostly came because of unsustainable hot putting, there hasn't been a lot to like about Berger this season. He's been struggling to hit greens, he hasn't been accurate off the tee, he isn't particularly long, he's a bad par-4 scorer … you get my drift. He's a talented guy, but I'm not buying it this week or probably anytime for a while until he shows more consistent all-around play.
