Christiaan Bezuidenhout Makes His First Start At Riviera
3 years agoChristiaan Bezuidenhout arrives in Los Angeles for the Genesis Invitational for the first time. Bezuidenhout has been busy so far this year, playing in four tournaments. Bezuidenhout last played at Pebble Beach. The 27-year-old South African finished in 14th place that week. At Pebble Beach, Bezuidenhout gained 2.8 strokes from tee-to-green and 3.9 strokes putting. It was an encouraging sign that Bezuidenhout gained strokes in putting. Known as a great putter, Bezuidenhout can struggle at times on Poa surfaces. Bezuidenhout will also need to regain his form on approach if he wants to contend this week. Without course history and the unfavorable surface at Riviera, it may be best to fade Bezuidenhout.
