Scouting report: Corey Pavin

Everything below is derived from Corey's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Corey is rated 78 overall and plays as a Grinder.

Why these ratings

Corey Pavin's profile is defined by driving accuracy (82) — the standout number in the card. As a Grinder, Corey never gives a hole away cheaply — scrambling 79, focus 76. This is the profile that wears opponents down in singles and refuses to lose matches that drift.

Ryder Cup strengths

Corey's biggest weapons are Accuracy (82) — strong driving accuracy; Pressure (82) — strong pressure; Big-match (80) — solid big-match temperament. These are the attributes to lean on when picking sessions and pairings.

Weaknesses to manage

The softer spots in the card are Driving (72) and Focus (76). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Corey with a complementary partner matters.
