Ogilvy Back On Form as PGA Season Begins

Geoff Ogilvy showed the world he is back on top of his game and ready to be among the challengers when Tiger Woods returns to the tour in a couple months. Ogilvy has a solid all around game as demonstrated by his U.S. Open victory a couple years ago. He also has a classic, effortless golf swing, and can be described as sneaky long. For the tall golfer, Ogilvy has a great swing to emulate. He has great balance and flexibility, which translates into a nice full back swing and strong follow through. However, he always seems to swing within himself and under control. This week, these characteristics translated into 75% of fairways hit and 86% greens in regulation. He was tied for third in putting this week, and that is how you win a golf tournament!
