    The Three Golf Swings I Coach (And When I Use Each) | Women's Open, LIV's Lifeline & My Homemade Training Aid

    I'm at Five Iron Golf in Business Bay this week, and the final major of the year is done. Shiho Kuwaki beat Esther Henseleit in a two-hole playoff at Royal Lytham to take the 50th AIG Women's Open — a second Japanese winner in a row, and a player who isn't even on the LPGA yet. I go through how that playoff actually unfolded, plus top-tens for Lottie Woad and Charley Hull, and the Hull prank story that got more attention than it deserved. On the PGA Tour, Michael Thorbjornsen got his first win at the last ever Rocket Classic, with Xander Schauffele second and a top five for Matt Wallace. And LIV have a lead investor signed, with a deal targeted for September — the first properly positive news they've had in a while. Then the coaching. I made myself a training aid on Sunday afternoon — a polystyrene plane taped to the top of the shaft — and it's become the best visual I've got for teaching the planar swing. That leads into the three swing patterns I coach after thirty years playing and eleven coaching: the planar move, Stack & Tilt and MORAD, and the Hovland pattern. Where the face is at each point, how much forearm rotation each one needs, and which ball flight each is built around. Finally, ten minutes of short game. I had a multiple club champion in ahead of the US Mid-Am, and the fix was one concept: set the face open, then turn the loft down through the ball. More speed, lower flight, more spin — and it feels far more positive than trying to help it up.

    EP11 - Why Ryan Fox's "Wrong" Golf Swing Won The Open, Plus Golf's Two Biggest Coaching Fights

    Ryan Fox is the Champion Golfer of the Year, and he got there with a swing that breaks nearly every rule I'd teach. In episode 11 I break down what he does — the splayed stance, the strong grip, barely 20 degrees of hip turn, that steep arm swing — and the rotation and side bend on the way down that make it all work. Plus the closing stretch at Birkdale: the bunker bogey where he took his medicine, the hot bounce on 17, and the putt on 18 he hit before any of us watching were ready for it. Then Bryson's two-shot penalty, and why professionals go out of their way to look clean. The Asian Tour realigning with the DP World Tour, and what that quietly takes away from LIV's pitch to investors. And two arguments worth having. The short game fight over spin versus bounce — I'll tell you which side I lean and why. And the long game divide between stack and tilt and the biomechanics camp, with a bit of my own history through Cranfield, Harmon, Leadbetter and MORAD. Coaching takeaway this week: stop chasing shallow. Find the slot. Women's British Open preview to close.

    EP10: My Open Qualifying Run + Who Wins at Birkdale

    The 154th Open lands at Royal Birkdale and I'm breaking down why the tight start could take the driver out of the big hitters' hands, including what Sir Nick Faldo told me about Rory's practice round. I get into Rory's face-to-path problem after a windy week at the Renaissance, Scottie's missed cut, Bryson's equipment merry-go-round, and why my pick is Fitzy (but my heart says Tommy). Then the personal side: grinding since May, my regional qualifier at Rochester & Cobham, making it to Final Qualifying, and the 61 I shot at Turnberry after two clinics with Faldo. Plus the one thing I'd tell you before you scroll for another swing tip: chase concepts, not feels.

    EP8: PGA Championship Picks, LIV Golf's Future & The Practice-to-Play Problem

    Zane Scotland breaks down the 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink - a Donald Ross classic that's going to punish anyone trying to overpower it. He gives his picks beyond Scottie Scheffler, including a bold case for Tommy Fleetwood. Then he digs into the LIV Golf funding drama and what he thinks they should double down on to survive. And to close, Zane shares a personal coaching moment: why swinging it great on the range doesn't always translate to the course, and how to fix it.
