If you were to pick a single golfer from this generation whose name is synonymous with “match play,” it would have to be Ian Poulter. And it’s not just the fact that he shows up every two years to scream his way to victory at the Ryder Cup; he’s had plenty of success at the WGC-Match Play, too.
Poulter had already found his match play form by 2010, when he beat Justin Leonard on the first extra hole to win the Match Play at Dove Mountain. He followed that by winning the European Tour’s 2011 Volvo World Match Play. In the Ryder Cup, meanwhile, his record speaks for itself: He’s 14-6-2 overall and a ridiculous 5-0-1 in singles matches. Adam Sarson, who keeps track of such things, has Poulter’s overall career match play singles record (here) at 43-18-5. The term “match-play specialist” seems fair to apply.
So what gives? Where does the extra fire come from? How does he seemingly will himself to mano-a-mano victory? At this weekend’s WGC-Match Play, where Poulter entered off two missed cuts but advanced to the Sweet 16 anyway, he did his best to explain his match play success.
After trouncing Rory McIlroy and holding off Cameron Smith to jump out to a 2-0-0 start through two days, Poulter was asked if he’s a better putter in match play.
“Yes,” he said, simply. But why?
“Because I really — I just really hate losing,” he said. “It’s so simple. There’s only one guy on the golf course that has the opportunity to beat you, and you’re not in control in a stroke play event. You know, I guess it’s just really simple. Just hole your putts and take care of business, and you can be a real pain in the backside. I love this format.”
Poulter says he didn’t grow up playing much tournament match play, but his disdain for losing still has its roots in childhood. “It’s just like when you go out and play your brother and you really don’t want your brother to beat you. It brings all those memories back. I hated it. I hated it when he beat me occasionally, and it happened a bit, and I didn’t like it.”
