What is it with these South Africans....Els, Goosen, Immelman and now one Louis Oosthuizen. All have swings smooth as silk, must be something in the genes.
Check out Rory Mcilroy at St Andrews, the kid has never shot in the 70’s on the Old Course. Four rounds in the 60’s could give him his first Major Championship.
39% of golfers have a reverse spine angle during their swing, this is the number one cause of back problems from golf.
As well as poor technique, a reverse spine angle can be caused due to physical inefficiencies the most likely being due to a lack of core strength.
Strengthening your core stability is easy, you can do a lot just in your living room without the use of major equipment. Ideally the use of swiss ball will provide the best way to work on this vital area supporting your spine and abdominal area, unfortunately sit ups just dont cut it!!
