Wadkins, his good friend, offered these comments on Marino's game:
Dan is extremely competitive, but it's a good thing he made football his
career sport. His game is solid and has the length to get it out there at
Pebble. However, he can get wild so he will be doing a little searching.
Another thing, Dan uses a long putter which indicates to me that he
suffered too many hits in the huddle.
