Has Cam Smith Fallen Foul Of Greedy Golfer Syndrome?

Is This The Beginning Of A Cam Smith Slump?
Will Can Smith be able to fight his way back or is this the beginning of a slump? Life has been good, real good, perhaps too good? “Never gonna have to worry about money again folks. Me, I am sitting real pretty!” Glad handling with all the celebs back home. Way to go Cam! You’re the best bro! Doing lots of media interviews and such stuff. Every body wants his opinion on everything. Kiss arse world is Cam’s world. Hey, but golfs a grind.
I am thinking Ricky Fowler. I am thinking all those super golfers who just, like, disappeared from the winner’s circle.
