Kevin Kisner remarked that Morikawa's versatility may hinder his ability to establish strong partnerships, as he has yet to find a consistent winning combination.

What they're saying

"
Kevin Kisner believes that Collin Morikawa has had so many different partners across his Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup career largely due to the fact that he is not an elite putter. Morikawa will get the opportunity to play alongside his ninth different partner in just 15 fourball and foursomes matches on Thursday, with Brandt Snedeker pairing the two-time major champion with Wyndham Clark for the opening session at Medinah.
