CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Keith Mitchell began the final round of last week’s Valspar Championship with an outside chance to contend. When his Sunday ended he’d taken 82 shots to get around Innisbrook and finished 69th.
For Mitchell, it didn’t make any sense, particularly the 42 putts he needed to close his week. “When I’d hit a putt it felt like I still had the putter cover on,” he explained.
When he arrived for this week’s Wells Fargo Championship, the first thing he did was go to the putting green with his putting coach and look for answers.
