Scouting report: Howard Clark

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

Why these ratings

Howard Clark's profile is defined by driving accuracy (77) — the standout number in the card. As a Precision player, Howard prioritises finding fairways and greens — accuracy 77, 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

Howard's biggest weapons are Accuracy (77) — solid driving accuracy; Irons (77) — below-average iron play; Driving (75) — below-average driving distance. These are the attributes to lean on when picking sessions and pairings.

Weaknesses to manage

The softer spots in the card are Pressure (73) and Focus (73). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Howard with a complementary partner matters.

Best format
