And not just his performance, but his statements have also contributed to making things harder for these top players. His mere confidence about his current swinging form is enough to bring tension to the entire field. “I would say this week, what I found earlier this week, my swing hasn’t looked this good probably since 2019 when I first came out,” he said. “I’ve played very well, 2020, 2021, but position-wise, I just love where I’m at right now and just freeing everything up, just allowing me to just look up at my target and hit the ball, and hopefully it goes where I want it.”

Keeping it pretty simple for himself, Morikawa mentioned that he only wanted to keep his focus on the game. “I think I’m very happy with that, and that just allows that freedom to just kind of forget about everything else and hit your shot,” he added. On his way to reaching his fourth anniversary on the PGA Tour, the golfer has already won two major championships in his career. And that is not very common for someone who’s just 26 years old. For most players, being on a level where they can be compared to Tiger Woods, is a huge pedestal to achieve. And Morikawa has already got his name around the GOAT’s 25-cut streak by making 22 consecutive cuts on the tour.
