Sepp Straka put up a stellar performance at the American Express this week. The Austrian golfer won by a two-stroke margin from Justin Thomas after carding in rounds of 65, 64, 64, and 70.

With a total score of 25 under par through four rounds, Straka's fine ball striking was on full display. His Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond driver enabled the PGA Tour sensation to average 306.60 yards off the tee with his longest drive being a whopping 318 yards.

Straka led the American Express field in greens in regulation. He hit 60 out of 72 greens in regulation because of the combination of his impeccable skill and his irons. Straka's irons and wedges have shafts 1/4 inch longer than the standard. This helps him generate more clubhead speed to gain more distance with the golf ball.
