Scouting report: Miguel Angel Jimenez

Everything below is derived from Miguel's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Miguel is rated 77 overall and plays as a Shotmaker.

Why these ratings

Miguel Angel Jimenez's profile is defined by iron play (78) — the standout number in the card. As a Shotmaker, Miguel shapes the ball and manufactures scores rather than overpowering a course — short game 78, iron play 78. Creative recovery makes this style thrive when a hole looks lost.

Ryder Cup strengths

Miguel's biggest weapons are Irons (78) — solid iron play; Short game (78) — solid short game; Scrambling (77) — solid scrambling. These are the attributes to lean on when picking sessions and pairings.

Weaknesses to manage

The softer spots in the card are Focus (75) and Driving (76). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Miguel with a complementary partner matters.

Best format

On the ratings, Miguel's strongest session is the Fourballs. Better ball suits this card’s attacking numbers — free to chase birdies while a partner keeps a safe score in play.
