Collin Morikawa was still a terrific golfer in 2022 despite young PGA Tour star failing secure a victory

Taking a closer look at Morikawa's year and why there's no reason to worry about the immediate future

Collin Morikawa was unsuccessful in picking up a victory at the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba. He was barely in contention, but when the dust settled on one of the last PGA Tour events of the year, Morikawa still found himself at the center of the story.

Earlier in the week, Golf Channel commentator Trevor Immelman had posited that perhaps the reason Morikawa has been struggling in 2022 -- a year during which he has failed to secure a win -- was because of how difficult it is to live up to the high bar he set for himself early in his career when he won five of his first 50 PGA Tour events and two of his first eight major championships.

Morikawa's reaction to the very innocuous comment from Immelman was strange, and made me think he had completely misunderstood what Immelman had said.
