DUBLIN, Ohio – Justin Suh leads the Memorial by a stroke and it doesn’t take a deep dive to figure out why.
“I don't think anyone is expecting to gain seven strokes off two days,” Suh laughed following his second-round 66.
Actually, Suh has picked up 7.33 shots this week in strokes gained: putting and leads the field in that category. It’s not the norm to be so dominant (he’s nearly 2.5 shots better than the second player in strokes gained: putting), but Suh wasn’t completely surprised.

“My putting has definitely been my strength over the course of my professional career,” said Suh, who ranks 14th this year on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: putting.
