Scouting report: Paul Casey

Everything below is derived from Paul's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Paul is rated 79 overall and plays as a Bomber.

Why these ratings

Paul Casey's profile is defined by driving distance (87) — the standout number in the card. As a Bomber, Paul leads with length — driving distance rated 87. In the game that means an edge on longer holes and in fourballs, where raw power lets you attack; the trade-off is that tight, accuracy-first courses blunt the advantage.

Ryder Cup strengths

Paul's biggest weapons are Driving (87) — strong driving distance; Irons (83) — solid iron play; Big-match (81) — 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 Putting (74) and Focus (75). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Paul with a complementary partner matters.

Best format

On the ratings, Paul'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.
