Scouting report: Sergio Garcia

Everything below is derived from Sergio's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Sergio is rated 85 overall and plays as a Bomber.

Why these ratings

Sergio Garcia's profile is defined by driving distance (91) — the standout number in the card. As a Bomber, Sergio leads with length — driving distance rated 91. 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

Sergio's biggest weapons are Driving (91) — elite driving distance; Irons (88) — strong iron play; Big-match (88) — elite 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 Accuracy (76) and Putting (78). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Sergio with a complementary partner matters.

Best format

On the ratings, Sergio's strongest session is the Singles. One-on-one match play rewards this card’s temperament and short game — the profile of a player you trust when there’s no partner to lean on.
