Golf News
Congratulations to Marc Leishman for winning the USPGA Tour’s Travellers Championship. Mark fired a final round 8 under par round to win by 1 shot, beating Bubba Watson, Charley Hoffman and Tim Clark down the stretch to claim his first USPGA Tour win. Mark now moves up to 27th on the USPGA Tours money list and up from 160 in the world to number 78. Moving inside the world’s top 60 is now a real possibility for Leishman. The tour now heads onto the AT & T National at Congressional Country Club. The field consists of world notables including Tiger Woods, Nick Watney, Adam Scott, and Dustin Johnson.
This Week’s Golf Tip:
This week’s tip is from Coach Jim McLean, who takes a look at one of golf histories great swings, Sam Snead… Some have said Sam was the greatest athlete ever to pick up a golf club. Some say he was the greatest player of all time. Some refer to his 81 victories on the PGA Tour, the most ever. Some say his shooting under his age in a PGA Tour event was the most amazing fact (a 66 at age 67). Some might argue it was that he shot 60 at age 71 on the challenging, par-72 Upper Cascades course. It's hard to hang one tag on Sam Snead, but if I had to, I believe it would be "He had the sweetest swing in the history of the game."
Sam's ageless swing surely speaks for itself, but allow me to point out some of his signature positions, like the famous "sit-down" move. Many of today's tour players study this move. Nobody did it better. Notice also his one-piece takeaway, the powerful coil, how his left wrist, arm and clubface are in line at the top. See how his right arm is in the perfect "throw" position on the way down. Note how his right heel is slightly up at impact, his weight well on his left side. And finally, the classic Sam Snead finish. To read more of this Golf Digest article, Click Here
