The Titleist Performance Institute is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. Since its inception in 2003, TPI has studied thousands of golfers ranging from the top professional Tour players to weekend enthusiasts – gathering an incredible amount of data on players of all shapes, sizes, ages, and fitness levels.
Using this data, TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a golf club in the most efficient way possible, and how physical limitations in a player’s body can adversely affect the golf swing, which could potentially lead to injury.
TPI protocols are developed and tested through many strategic partnerships with NCAA Universities, major health-care hospital systems, leading fitness organizations, professional golf associations and national Olympic sports development programs on five continents. Everything TPI teaches has been validated through years of research and testing by industry leading experts, many of whom sit on the TPI advisory board.
So, it’s no wonder why your favorite professional golfers and podcasters are spinning around on rotary chairs: They’ve become one of the most effective tools for communicating how a golfer should push against the ground.
Whether early extension, loss of posture, sway, slide or even coming over the top, many of the most common swing characteristics we identify can be addressed by improving how we use the ground. Watch TPI’s lesson with Mike from Chasing Scratch above and check out the full article here to learn more about how the timing and direction of your ground force can be just as important as the amount of force itself.
