Watch and Learn: Tiger Woods
(1 of 8)
Tiger Woods
His athleticism makes his power moves difficult to copy, so start with his setup and finish.
Analysis by Top 100 Teacher Brady Riggs
Woodley Lakes G.C., Van Nuys, Calif.
In addition to just about every other category, Tiger tops the "Swing I Wish I Had" list — the voters of which include more than a few Tour pros. You may have dreamed about owning a swing like Tiger's, too, but buyer beware — there are certain parts of his technique that only an athlete of his ability can execute. On the other hand, there are other areas of his swing that all players can learn from. Pay attention to his setup and finish — these are the easiest to copy and can pay immediate dividends. If you're looking for a challenge, try Tiger's signature move (the "power squat" in frame 3). It's difficult, but it'll send your swing speed off the charts.
