Bud Cauley Talked About the Recent Change of Equipment in His Bag
Bud Cauley explained his new putters.
After winning the RBC Canadian Open, Cauley discussed how making certain tweaks to his bag had a significant impact on his game. The golfer detailed how some center-shafted putters he's been using helped him get his game on track.
Cauley explained, "Yeah, it's helped a lot. I've always putted with a Newport 2-style putter, and I started messing around a little bit with some center-shafted putters. I'm left eye dominant, and I was told that sometimes a center shaft or less offset can look a little better to someone who is left eye dominant but plays the game right-handed."
Bud Cauley explained how his game improved with time using new putters.
"It's helped me a lot. It looks a lot more square to me, it's a little easier to aim, and I've really putted pretty well since I put it in," the golfer continued.
Bud Cauley Claimed That the RBC Canadian Open Was Not an Easy Tournament
Bud Cauley detailed the difficulty of TPC Toronto.
During the post-tournament news conference, Cauley also discussed how the TPC Toronto's conditions made the Canadian Open difficult to play. The golfer stated that he persevered through a lot of difficult shots to win.
"Yeah, it was obviously playing difficult with the rain and the wind, the conditions were so much different today than they were the first three days," Cauley explained, "I feel like my game was in a pretty good spot, I was hitting some pretty good shots. I had a 3-putt there on 4, but was able to birdie 5 and kind of get it right back."
