When Age Creeps Up On You At A Major

From an age perspective, the Open duel between Henrik Stenson and Phil Mickelson at Royal Troon was that rarest of things: A showdown for a major championship by two golfers older than 40. The only other time that has happened in a final group was with Ben Hogan and Sam Snead in the 1954 Masters, the duo playing the final 36 holes plus an 18-hole playoff together when both were 41.

What A Good Bunker Shot Feels Like

THE TECHNIQUE on greenside bunker shots is quite different than what you do on every other shot. The fact that you’re not trying to hit the ball first, and you’re entering the sand behind it, calls for a particular mindset – and skill set. Whether you’ve struggled from the sand or just want a refresher course, let me give you some tips and feels for hitting quality sand shots. You’ll have a clear plan when you step into a bunker.

Fix Your Slice in One Step
Golf Digest South Africa

Fix Your Slice in One Step

ONE OF THE CRITICAL moments in any golf swing is the transition from backswing to downswing. A lot of instruction in this phase of the swing is geared towards what the lower body is doing, which is important but doesn’t always fix a slice. To straighten out a slice, focus on getting your left arm moving in the proper direction as you start down. By doing this, your club will strike the ball with the path and face angle that produces solid contact and eliminates the slice. Here are a couple of things you can work on to improve your transition, with LPGA Tour rookie Therese Koelbaek demonstrating.— WITH RON KASPRISKE
