• Putting sits at A for Henley, top-tier across the 2025–26 pool: only 5 players in the pool rate higher. Holing putts, especially the ones inside ten feet that turn pars into birdies.
• Course IQ A — elite in the 2025–26 pool; only one other player in the pool rates higher. Course management and shot selection — playing the smart shot, not just the bold one.
• Nerve A — among the very best in the pool in the 2025–26 pool; only 3 players in the pool rate higher. Composure in contention — how a golfer performs with the tournament on the line.

Tour Winner. A dependable, above-average build across the board. Nothing here is a true weakness, and nothing is a true signature strength either — just a well-rounded pro's game.
