BIO
Emiliano is an excellent ball striker who often struggles badly with his putting. However, this is a golfer who has reached a career best Official World Golf Ranking of 23 so he can clearly play when the putter behaves.
Emiliano can often struggle with his temperament and this has probably held him back from winning more tournaments. Regular viewers of PGA Tour golf on TV may well remember Emiliano angrily "flipping off" the hole when one of his putts lipped out at The Northern Trust Open in 2019!
A poor second half of 2021 saw him slip to 89th in the world rankings.
Significant info
Emiliano and his wife had a baby in early 2022.
