He blew the field away last week and was by all accounts playing really well and his game was in good shape.
To come out and lay an egg this week just because it is a major suggests it is all mental. If this were a regular tour even there is no chance he would be trailing by 10 after 2 rounds as he usually always carries over hot play from week to week.
Lol as do most regular golfers. But I think with the swing change he is too inconsistent this season, I mean look at his stats...

He's been all over the place this season, but I do think that despite swing inconsistencies he should still be relatively close to the lead, not 10 back and out of sight. IMO his short game isn't what it used to be as well, he has missed a lot of short putts and has probably given away 4-5 strokes in this tournament as he did in the Open
