How golf pros think during their swing | McIlroy, Morikawa & more

[@arklowrockz]

McIlroy was the only who sounded like he had recently had an existential crisis about his golf swing....I can relate. Just empty your head and play.

[@blakebarrette9568]

Min’s swing is absolutely gorgeous 2:15

[@williag1970]

Poults is just pure class. Born entertainer

[@brianr6661]

Topping the ball on purpose like that takes so much skill. I'm not sure I could do it with 100 tries, but OH MY GOD can I do it on accident...

[@alexroberts6416]

Didn't even register on the tracer

[@saizn9sr]

I think about not hitting that water, 60% weight on front, 40% on back, sync my swing with my internal metronome for tempo, and right before I swing, I think about that one embarrassing moment from 20 years ago.

[@MrJamesohh]

the naked one or that 'other' one?

I’ve watched this like 5 times now. Poults is so good. Marcus Armitage with the “wah-ta” and 163mph ball speed with a hybrid????? And can someone please tell me how guys like Paul Casey averages 174mph ball speed with that smooth swing? Averages…that means he gets over that number half the time. With that smooth ass swing. I would love to learn. Please explain to me the physics of it.

I’m a 6 handicapper and I really have no thoughts while hitting. It’s very refreshing!

[@alexanderjefferies7740]

I finished a complete swing rebuild on my own in early October of 2021. Took me 1.5 years but I’ve gone from 26 to 9.8, not even joking. Read up and taught myself different approaches to the fundamentals and how to build a great effortless swing and I got there. It’s nice to have finally found my swing and not need to think about literally anything anymore, because I trust it, I know it is on plane and it works, I love it. I can absolutely relate.

[@MarkSmithhhh]

You're a good player...you probably only think about the task, hit the ball to the target...if that...I'm a 15 and I have way too many thoughts

[@oOwillayOo]

Poulter is every high capper on the 1st tee with a gallery.

[@springa42]

His trick shot is their nightmare

[@thejokeexplainer]

I assumed it was intentional, but hard to know.

[@springa42]

@@thejokeexplainer there’s 0 question in my mind it was intentional. Tiger woods always did that trick at range demos.

[@WorldwidebirdiesGC]

I love how for the most part, the more “average” the player(tour terms), the more thought, the better the player, less to NO thought aka Mr Mcilroy

[@morgancross5481]

I don't know if that necessarily tracks for all of them. Rory was FULL of swing thoughts recently with a coach change and trying to alter his delivery, so he's clearly trying something new right now. Most guys will have a couple core thoughts unless they are just playing lights out. But yeah, anyone with more than a couple will usually be in trouble on the course.

[@urmama54]

yea mayne, cant go past ol' dustin gump on dat one

[@tomault3063]

JT said he has 4 or 5 swing thoughts and hopes that one of them will work on any given round.

[@owennielsen9792]

That was a 3 Wood which makes sense for a tour pro. Marcus Armirage

[@TheWedgeWizard]

Everyday is a little different but my main thought is seeing the shot I want to hit in my minds eye, then executing. That and staying centered & tempo. Overthinking is for the range not the course. ⛳️🧙‍♂️💭

[@norrispg4212]

why not include Nicklaus - the greatest major champion in history - who has said he played good golf with a swing thought but he played great golf with 3 or 4? it's not what the sports psychologists advise but none of them can break par

[@dream-_weaver4769]

Rory was a little salty. Lol

[@moweejim]

Swing thoughts are a misnomer. Pros during their swing do not think of any thoughts to improve their execution. All thoughts regarding their swing or what they want to accomplish with their shot are done prior to the swing. Once the swing commences, the only thing going through their minds is to fully execute their swing in the same manner they have practiced before their round started.

[@williamwetherington844]

what they say to the camera but what they're thinking probably is.......God don't make me look like a dork on television.
