The Daily's Verdict

This author has a poor reputation for journalistic standards and is not considered a reliable news source.

Bias

85%

Examples:

  • Back-to-back pars followed before he hit the shot of the tournament
  • Hideki Matsuyama made a trio of three consecutive birdies Sunday on his way to a sizzling 62

Conflicts of Interest

0%

Examples:

No current examples available.

Contradictions

85%

Examples:

  • Jordan Spieth offered a reminder to Matsuyama to double check his scorecard after he was disqualified from the tournament due to signing for an incorrect score
  • The article mentions that Matsuyama hit 14 of 18 greens in regulation and eight of 14 fairways but failed to mention how many putts he took. This is important as putting accuracy can greatly affect a golfer's score.

Deceptions

50%

Examples:

  • The author claims that Matsuyama had a chance to tie the course record of 61 set by Ted Tryba in the third round in 1999 but rolled his long birdie attempt three feet past the hole at the famed 18th green before calmly sinking his par putt. However, this is not entirely accurate as Matsuyama was actually two strokes away from tying or breaking the record.
