(Reuters) - Deflated though he was after his playoff loss at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions on Monday, Jimmy Walker knows his game is in good shape ahead of his title defence at this week's Sony Open on the Hawaiian island of Oahu.

The 35-year-old American was especially sharp with his iron game last week at the Kapalua Resort on Maui, where his title bid was undone by a few putts that got away over the closing stretch.
