During the landing flare, the airplane veered to the right approximately 20 degrees. The pilot initially added full engine power to execute a go-around; however, after the airplane continued to veer to the right he elected to reduce the power and land. The airplane subsequently struck a turf roller and the ground which resulted in substantial damage to the right wing and fuselage. The pilot reported that he did not experience any mechanical malfunctions that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's loss of directional control during landing.
