U.S. Open 2019: Jason Dufner took an alarming amount of time to hit this 18-inch (!!) putt
Jason Dufner's short-putting woes, and putting woes in general, have been on full display this season. They really reared their ugly head at the Wells Fargo Championship, where Dufner could be seen taking what felt like minutes to hit short tap ins while in contention.
