Golf Monthly UK – August 2019

4

His lower-half stability gives him

a great base to work against. His

shoulders are still closed but the

hips are beginning to open, paving the

way to a perfect transition from

downswing into through-swing. This is a

great position to copy halfway down.

5

There’s a terrific turn through

the ball. The hips have cleared,

allowing the club and arms to zip

down the line. Great extension is a real

feature of his swing. He’s not long by

modern standards but pound for pound,

this is as good as it gets at this point.

6

Centrifugal force pulls him

nicely through on to his left side.

The balance he’s shown all the

way through his swing is encapsulated

in the finish. When you watch him play,

it’s almost like a computer-generated

swing. Mechanically, it’s textbook stuff.
