Camilo Villegas Leaving Cobra For Taylormade

 
Out of curiosity I looked at his stats for this year. 7 cuts made out of 13 events and no top 25's. That is a significant drop in performance compared to his last few years on tour...

Is there a possibility that the ongoing proceedings are taking a toll on his mental game, aside from just playing rubbish?

I really wish this lawsuit between the companies would be over. As the first media outlet to report this story, as you can imagine, it has not been a fun time over the last few weeks.

qualify for shield law protections?
 
Camilo has done NOTHING this year. Should have stuck with Cobra.
 
I don't see how his equipment change is the one and only reason he's not playing as well. Yes, changing equipment would be something that would take a while to get used to, but there's obviously other things at play with him in regards to his poor play.

I'm thinking he focuses a little too much on riding his bike when he should be at the range.

If you take a look at his stats page:
http://www.pgatour.com/players/r/?/02/77/70/stats
I do find it interesting that the one thing he used to be somewhat known for which was distance, and he's 74th.

I think he's always been more known for pound-for-pound power, rather than actual distance. He bombs it out there pretty well for how small he is, but I don't know if he's ever been very high in that category compared to the bigger guys.

I thank you for that post... good break up of my day. Pre-lunch chuckles. Rule #2 of the Brotherhood... No shirt too tight?
 
Rule #1 : No Speed too Extreme
Rule #2 : No Speed too Extreme

my thoughts exactly... hes really addicted to that bike
 
Riding bike helps my game for sure. Leg strength, balance, tempo, whatever, I don't know but it does help. If he is making cuts and a top ten every now and again, maybe that's all he needs right now. I can understand a guy trying to avoid burnout if he is in a slump. I pay to play and I'm trying to stay happy.

How about missing cuts and a top 40 every now and again?

Nope I've never missed a cut, nor have I ever made the top 40.:D
