Uhh, I'm guessing this is a joke.
Cause Dooku was trying to turn him to the dark side and was toying with him in AOTC.
Also, He was toted as the greatest Soresu master to ever live by Mace.

Uhh, didn't Kenobi start training in Soresu as soon as he saw how easily Jin's defenses failed him?
In the RotS novel Dooku was taken by surprise by Kenobi's Soresu, which he had never demonstrated in the past. Obviously this has been contradicted by their encounters in the Clone Wars, but in their AotC battle Dooku had never seen Kenobi practice it.
He was ragdolled by Dooku, an incredibly potent Force User. That's hardly a count against Obi-Wan.
Sure, Ventress also did it, but that was also in a state she's not usually in. She did the same to Anakin, who we all know is infinitely more powerful than she.
Other than that, it's just Maul, who only was capable of it on a Dark Side Nexus.
