Rookie learning about tough shots

 

After his first visit to Augusta National in early March, Keegan Bradley left the grounds shaking his head about the 495-yard 10th hole.
 
“The second shot is the hardest second shot to a par-4 that I’ve ever seen,” the PGA Championship winner and Masters rookie said.
 
“It’s a really tough second shot,” he said. “I think once the tournament gets under way I can get down (the hill) a little lower.
 
In his March practice round with Mickelson and Dustin Johnson, Bradley said he was on the downslope off the tee, not the flat area at the bottom. That made the second shot even tougher.
 
“You have to be so precise,” he said. “If you miss long anywhere, you’re in big trouble. If the pin is on the right and you’re right, you’re in big trouble.”
