Not really a news flash. Pretty much anyone who has won on tour is or was doing something right.

I doubt very highly my swing looks anything like that, but it sure is nice when it feels like it does.

There is a better one on swingacademy, I'll find it later. Take note of his setup and takaway. The club stays on plane with the ball throughout the backswing. I know I was setting up to take it away under plane and had the club under plane the whole time, throwing it out and getting steeper on the downswing. It's something I've been adressing and hitting the driver a lot better because of it.

I love his tempo and admire how he gets the club square with so much power. But technically, I get nothing from it.

It kind of irritates me how easy he makes it look.

Note the open stance as well, allowing the hips more room to clear quickly. A lot of great players play slightly open, myself included

I'm not a great player but I've always played with a slightly open stance too.

Yep, he's got great tempo. Really smooth. Very steady player. Too bad about his back problems. Seems like a cool guy, too.
