Collin Morikawa, a two-time major champion, was observed engaging in an unusual practice routine at Aronimink Golf Club on May 13, 2026, according to reports from HITC. The sighting has led to speculation about his form ahead of upcoming tournaments.
Witnesses noted that Morikawa spent an extended period working on his swing mechanics, particularly focusing on his driver, which has been a source of inconsistency in recent events. The 29-year-old American has struggled with his driving accuracy this season, ranking outside the top 100 on the PGA Tour in fairways hit.
Golf analyst Mark Immelman commented, 'Seeing him so focused on the range at Aronimink, especially on a day when many players would be resting, suggests he's trying to solve something. It's a bit concerning for a player of his caliber.'
Morikawa, who won the 2020 PGA Championship and 2021 Open Championship, has not secured a victory since the 2023 Zozo Championship. His recent performances have included missed cuts at the Masters and the Wells Fargo Championship.
Despite the concerns, Morikawa remains optimistic. 'I'm working hard to get back to my best,' he said in a brief interview. 'Every practice session is a step forward.'
