Young Rory compared to old is fascinating. As a young wiry kid he had amazing fluidity and range of motion which slotted that club in beautifully at the top all day long. Like Woods, Faldo, Duval, DeChambeau and many others, their pursuit of more power sees them bulking up and changing body composition. Bigger biceps, bigger chest, stronger legs, bigger back etc. But there is a balance between brute strength and range of motion/elasticity. It is fascinating to see how his swing has changed and how much work he puts into trying to get it back to his younger version by folding the trail arm and getting it more infront with less hand depth. He’s still incredible obviously but the lesson might be to keep the range of motion as you become “golf strong”. It’s a tough sport to train for to keep that balance.

One of the best “classic” swing styles you’ll ever see. Geometry, sync and efficiency are pretty perfect. Many of my ideals in it. None of this contrived, complicated match-up stuff that many are throwing into the game. Club works up simply (not too much arm depth), lead wrist slightly flexed, trail side and arm plane shallow in transition, body opens and sidebends at impact. All in a second with very little thought. Stunning and a joy to watch and study. So much great footage coming to my Youtube on this.

2/2: Contrasting swing style to Colin that I just posted. Both winners. Both work. Don’t let anyone tell you there’s only one way, or “shallow is dead” or whatever. They are full of s**t. Golf has historically had misguided concepts and with social media, more so. I’m swing style agnostic but like a swing to be efficient as the ball responds to physics not magic. You should to.

Some people can make the complicated look sooooo simple! Minji Lee in action. That’s as good as any male or female player that you’ll see. Beautiful body motion. Core winds up to move the L-shape of the club and arms. Upper and lower body separate and shift, pulling the L-shape down. The body rotates and left arm n shaft line up at impact is simple big-picture. Lovely. Minjee Lee take a bow! Hours and years gone into that. 🙌🏼👌🏼 One of many great players in the women’s game. Gonna be a great U.S. Women's Open Pebble Beach Golf 🙌🏼 Vid LPGA

Coached this kid for many years and he now lives back in Korea. Love his swing, such great fluidity and tempo. It’s a great example also of the arms never getting stuck and how the club “releases” and is almost thrown in a different way to an iron. The shaft raises and club exits higher, the club freewheels more 👌🏼

Chipping- “The body is the motor. The arms hang on for the ride as the wrists create the artistry”- JY. Tiger at Augusta now, standing close and open at address. Watch the glove in back pocket as the motor (hips) gently rotates. 👌🏼 two different releases here as he hits subtle side spins to access tight pins.

This pitching style produces high spin and predictable trajectory making distance control easy. Goes like this Set up: narrow stance, hands and ball position neutral, clubface slightly open, weight hint left. Swing: Rib cage rotation is the engine. Wide back and through so club skids with slight shaft lean. Ball launches mid-20 degrees with a 58. Body raises up and backs up a hint. Pretty skilful but you can at least get it “wide to wide” to let the club skid not dig. Video Parker McLachlin

Rose Zhang is like a machine off the tee and one of the best drivers, male or female. What can we learn? 1. Long, wound and rhythmic backswing. 2.Rotation of forearm and wrist in transition to ultra-shallow it 3. Sidebend and rotation at impact with path going up and to the right. Note: hips get a little too spun and recoil later which actually helps torque in her case but not a part to copy. Great action overall. Vid LKD
