BURNS PULLS IT OUT OF THE BAG IN TEXAS

Sam Burns won the WGC Dell Match Play title last month and broke into the world’s top 10, but what you might not know, it was his debut performance at the event!

Now the heat is back on the PGA TOUR, as the iconic and only match play tournament on the schedule has been removed. It’s a format that all the players enjoy but as Burns found out the further you go the harder it becomes, not just against the level of player, but on the body.

“This week is as mentally exhausting as it is physically and I’ve been kind of fighting my golf swing a little bit at the start of this four-week stretch,” he said. “I put a lot of hard work in with my coach, Brad Pullin, and I’m just so thankful for him and the amount of work that he’s put in with me and been there by my side for all of it. I’ve been putting it well all week and I knew that if we could just get the ball in position, give ourselves lots of chances, hopefully, they would go in.”
