One thing I've learned from watching Xander's swing is how he maintains his right arm (elbow doesn't bend) until shaft is at or just past parallel in his back swing. I've been working on this and it's improved my ball striking and increased distance.
Doesn’t go horizontal at the top for a big wind up but drops down to compress the muscles for a clean pull then lets the body unwind for the full follow thru. I think bringing the right arm down and into the waist controls the path of the club and the rest is alignment of the hands at impact.
When I watch this in slow motion, I don’t see the back stress. I see the dynamic hips & how he opens towards his target, his back stress looks below average with the shorter backswing & all the impact/stress coming from the knees/legs/hips
Each and every physiology and bio mechanics are different, sorry you guys don’t know the forces on his spine etc. The golfer now has a team who is assessing the athlete and will if injury or correction is necessary will inform the player. I don’t see any acute pain or tightness that is afflicting his swing this time.
Huge strength but not that accurate weekend golfer's haven't got the physic to control all the moving part's like dropping the club on the downswing to bring it on the inside.

Great posture, great extension on the way back and if you're short you need fast hips for power.
He lags his hands at the top as he drops into the slot. He's getting incredible clubhead swing with full extension from the simple move.
last month you hated his swing. he wins a major and you are all over him like honey on a biscut
Xander is the Viktor Hovland of 2024. Hope he doesn’t decide to go on a bodybuilding regimen
Looks great but looks a lot of stress on the back. I wonder what happens after some years. Look at Ben Hogan - better for the back
theyre pros for a reason. i think he'll be fine.

I'll take back issues if the trade off was I had to swing like this to be a multi millionaires in my 30s
You are mistaken, as he gets full weight transfer with no reverse C finish. Yes, he is using his upper back for a full turn.
Nah, the biomechanics look great.
many talks on golf but only few can execute

No es mucha trabajo des las manos

Extremely accurate. One of the best from tee to green on tour.
That's a ton of compression on the spine and out of alignment!
He's using his legs more than his back. His spine isn't compressing much at all in fact I'd suggest it's stretching more like yoga?
you obviously don't play or know the game.
@@9418matthew yes, from the ground up!
