Joe Durant doesn’t have the length off the tee to compete on some courses. What he lacks in distance, though, he makes up for in accuracy. Case in point: He’s first in the field this week in fairways hit, having missed just five all week (89 percent).
And even when Durant, who is currently just one shot back, has missed the short grass, he hasn’t missed by much with an average of 13 feet from the edge of the fairway. And in the last two rounds, he didn’t missed the fairway by more than 8 feet on his two missed tee shots. See below for more. -- Brian Wacker
