Scouting report: Fred Funk

Everything below is derived from Fred's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Fred is rated 75 overall and plays as a Precision.

Why these ratings

Fred Funk's profile is defined by driving accuracy (87) — the standout number in the card. As a Precision player, Fred prioritises finding fairways and greens — accuracy 87, iron play 77. That control is gold in foursomes, where mistakes are shared, and on tight courses that punish the crooked driver.

Ryder Cup strengths

Fred's biggest weapons are Accuracy (87) — elite driving accuracy; Irons (77) — below-average iron play; Scrambling (76) — solid scrambling. These are the attributes to lean on when picking sessions and pairings.

Weaknesses to manage

The softer spots in the card are Driving (69) and Focus (72). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Fred with a complementary partner matters.

Best format

On the ratings, Fred's strongest session is the Foursomes. Alternate shot rewards the accuracy and control in this card — a low-mistake game that won’t leave a partner exposed.
