The time away was spent on getting fitter, given his brush with injuries in the past, and sharper on the greens. More importantly, it was giving shape to a new perspective for tournament weeks as PGTI looks at a packed second half.
It was put to test, and Arjun can claim success with the tactic of “playing smart, not going for the tough flags and making use of the par-5s”.

“Normally, I’m aggressive when playing well. On the 3rd I got stuck but could still go for the flag. The Arjun of yore would have still gone for it, but not today.”
