If f is differentiable as well as continuous at the solution point, it looks like its tangent line near it.
Newton's Method calculates a new point by looking along the tangent lines while this method chooses the center of the previous interval as its new point.
Therefore, when you are within close range and f is close to its tangent line, Newton's Method homes in on the solution point much faster than this method does.
