Is it a stamina or concentration problem? I know he had that addiction to coca cola that he talked about. I wonder has it anything to do with that?

That will be starts 16 and 17, some going for a guy in category 20. Currently 131st in race to Dubai with just over 80K won. Has made 7 cuts but has yet to break 70 at the weekend.
