Annika Sorenstam may be the best woman ever? Strong and fast, great sequence. Hit a draw from an open clubface at the top. Complicated movement, but obviously good enough to dominate from 6400 yards.

Could watch this all day!
Always love Wayne D’s analysis. He has been my swing coach for over 10 years and I would not have been as good of a player I am today without his help. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Wayne. This is my fav.
Wayne, you are doing a fantastic service for golfers everywhere with your video analyses. I've have learned more in the past three years on RUclips and your site than in my previous three decades of studying the swing. You don't have to defend a thing you've said here!
Fantastic swing.
Nice job Wayne - clearly the kiddies are enjoying themselves with their comments.
I could watch this for hours. Poetry in motion, just so smooth and efficient.A little dare i say Ben Hogan/Bobby Jones.Not as good as them, but close.
Annikas swing looks more repeatable than either Jones or Hogan.
One guy right, one guy a mile off. Exactly like Bobby Jones. Both Swing the Clubhead. Exactly why Anika is so smooth. As was Bobby Jones. Did the author know?
Wayne it is simply amazing how telanted she is. If I swing losing the tusline like her and get above the shaft plane at impact, my left shoulder hikes up something aweful. Rotating her head most help her release the shoulder rotation. This swing proves that head movement is not only great but necessary. Most golfers do not understand that the head is only a follower not the leader. The only leaders in golf, are the feet first then the knees and hips. Great analysis keep up the great work
I tried today this "no look impact" drill and I hit about 28 good shots in a row with my 9-iron. My head turning with the shoulders help me being MUCH MORE OPEN at impact. My divots were too deep before this and my ball flight too low. Now the divots got just nice and shallow and the 9-irons were about 5-8 meters higher and clearly longer too.
Where do we look when we throw a ball - I do the same shallows me out every time
God she was so great...hard to argue with anything this woman does in her swing
Great job Wayne! Appreciate all your videos you post. Keep up the good work!
Her swing reminds me a little of Moe Norman with a such a smooth and pendulum motion. She's so smooth and her tempo is picture perfect. She has such a minimalist swing while using her big muscles and not her little ones. Definitely a swing to copy particularly for people who aren't built perfectly for golf.
I tried moving my head with my shoulder on the downswing and the distance does improve!
She is right eye dominant, which might explain the early "look forward" that she does at impact.
Annika and Colin Montgomerie share a lot of similarities in their top of the backswing and club face alignment positions.This leads to similar deliveries and two of the most consistent swings that have ever played golf.
Sorry. but I see no similarities with her and Monty. Monty was very upright and then used his hips more than any player in history to start his downswing
@@alansmith3378 Don't beat yourself up about it.
@TheGolfSage actually I have to agree with Mr. Defrancesco. If you pause the vid at exactly 3:10 you will see that her shoulders are perfectly 90 degrees to the target at impact. I have found that by moving my head slightly toward the target just before impact makes me turn properly keep my spine angle and not sway. Thus creating good lag and a more consistent strike. Thanks to Annika for this wisdom.
the best video on how to come into the ball. Do you have one on the setup for a draw or fade if I have an open stance. I am not sure where ball should be in my stance if I have an open stance. Meaning my left foot back and my right foot a bit outside the right at setup.
Adding one thought. Annika's Golf Swing is Spot on to Manuel de la Torre's Teaching.
Cool vid & instruction, thanks
Have to agree with carole lerman here. Have you looked at Henrik Stenson's swing? Seems the Swedes have something in common. I never understood the maxim "you can never stand too close to the ball" until seeing them swing in slow motion. It comes down to the most efficient use of gravity to start and power the downswing. Having suffered a concussion, I had to retrain my golf swing so that my head turns during the swing just to assist my balance (a la Ron Del Barrio). Turns out to be an amazingly efficient way to move the club, because your body movement is efficient to start with.
She feels the weight of the club and throws it through impact, effortlessly
wayne, was annika a long hiiter or avg. her swing looks upright to me.
Wayne,
Great commentary here. I have studied this swing for years and
have certain tendencies that get me coming back to it. Because in
driver and 3 wood the ball is so far forward in stance.. i feel like I
can release the club properly like I'm turning into a wall into left leg
while having head in normal position.. but all my irons and wedges are
like Annika's release... I cannot keep my head down when ball is middle or back
in stance, I end up hitting more of a stall/flip. DJ and Henrick often
do this too on their short irons/wedges.
Curious your opinion on the JT-esque right foot push/throw.. I'm trying to get rid of it as it has me stall into my left side more than I need to. Would like to stay and turn more into right heel like Annika does here.
Thx Sir.. will do
Appreciate it..

I wish I could get the club more open at the top. I envy her ability to square the club from that position.
Maybe a little Colin Montgomery action with the hips? More Jimmy Ballard style. Whats amazing is with the hip motion she has is that she does not slide through the ball and is able to rotate and maintain that lag. Though the big double shift on the backswing and downswing, wonderful move but its very difficult for the average duffer to learn, trust me ( :
A lot of the Swedish players have been influenced by Jimmy Ballard. Connected take away, soft left arm, maintaining the "triangle", and releasing the head and right side all Ballard concepts he learned from Sam Byrd. Stenson another one preloads right side and release of the triangle very athletic and beautiful to watch.
@@Rachel-ch9us Yes! 👍
The hand-eye coordination necessary to pull off a swing like this consistently is incredible. It is beautiful in its rhythm and unorthodoxy but thoroughly useless for anyone to emulate. If you are the gifted 1% and have timing this good and aren’t already scratch you’d be best to learn a more “normal” swing. I had a similar swing due to back issues as a youngster, but weight training and puberty made it more “normal”. The fact that I went from a 12 handicap with my old swing (inconsistency) to a 4 with my new one in a matter of months proves how ridiculously difficult this is. The amount of movement in the hips, the amount of closing on the downswing, the forward head, etc...as gifted a golfer as tiger woods imo.
THE greatest female golfer to ever walk planet earth...Annika Sorenstam.
"The GOAT" 🐐
Just like all the great ball strikers she twirls it in transition. It not a drop it’s a quarter inch twirl in transition. That loads the right hand
Wayne, you can't correct perfection. Forget your box.
Nice video content! Forgive me for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you thought about - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (do a search on google)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my close friend Aubrey after many years got great success with it.
@@rosminantia4612 What ever works for you is what I think. If you can't break 90 look for anything that can help you.
Wayne, I love your videos but i wish they would go faster
@i2969k I meant square to the target.
why does she look up on her downswing?
Anika sorenstam
Just so you know wayne this guy is a troll. I've seen so many of his comments on swing videos including one in which he said bubba watson lost power because of the way his knees moved... Just wanted to let you know so you don't waste your time on him again in the future. Love the videos
@cuberslashskater way to detect sarcasm cuber, hahahha :D
@TheGolfSage
Her head rotates with the body as to help keep her spine angle from shfting. Just because her head is turning, does not mean her eyes are not looking at the ball at impact.
On a side note, analyzing a pro for tips on fundamentals is great, but using them as a guideline for a swing is not a great idea, since most people are not pysically capable of doing what they do. The small percentage of people who are capable, and are serious about golf should have thier own coach.
actually she has said that her eyes are not at the ball always when impact
Zero verticals it seems. Very Arm dominant. She had incredible hands....Dare I say she could have been way more dynamic....but that swing was for fairways and greens.
Not much shoulder turn in her back swing. Also head very level..high left arm at the top DL. Very unorthodox looking to me but It worked well. Also looks like she's swayinf a little on the take away but I see that frequently
Nicest golf swing ever
Is she not just staying behind the shot with the driver because she wants to hit the bal on the up?
So, all that lag is achieved with her early forward movement, thrusting of her legs and getting her body out of way naturally dropping her arms and hands in a perfect ball striking position and trusting it..
Lag drill take it back with your left arm and at the top make a hook with your right index and put it.on the center of the shaft and make repetitive downs swings pulling with your right hand
I watched her play a lot on the LPGA. She was way too dominant. I would of loved to see some of her shots on protracer just to see her ball flight.
I went to an event years ago and her traj was completely different from everyone else I saw that day. It was pga tour ball flight. It was more spinny I would say.
I miss her so much. Her swing could be put to classical music.
Not head up!
Good look up!!
@wdefrancesco Hahahaha The self proclaimed "Golf Sage" is a fool. Imagine him walking up to Annika and telling her she did it wrong all these years?
why does Colin Montgomerie take the wide path? 🤣😂
If any, and I mean ANY swing coach tells you you should be ACTIVELY, consciously thinking about hand position in your swing at ANY point other than the set up, then get your money back, call me, I WILL TEACH YOU, and you can give me what you feel it was worth. I have proven to dozens of golfers that with no B.S. Class A or fancy instruction school title, and no formal training, I am able to transform a swing in a matter of a couple hours. Most of them don't even need instruction after the fact.
"hula" move? 😂 7-14
Get her in the box.... are you kidding she's the most accomplished golfer ever! This is not a real video.
your target line is off... just sayin
Johnny Miller was doing one of the women's majors (I assume the U.S. Open but I don't remember) and he said of her swing: She just picks the club up and then drops it back down, not a whole lot to it and not much power but you can hit the ball straight like that, if that's what you are after. He was pretty dismissive of her swing...God bless Johnny Miller, he is the only golf commentator who wouldn't bow down to every golfer.
Steve Fowler p. Shows what Miller knows. Annika was #1 in driving distance in 2003 at 272 yards.
Let's get a couple more lines drawn in there, THEN everyone will understand. I bet you've caused more people to give up the game than you have lowered handicaps.
Grip - ball position - posture - learn where the weight shifts during the coil and uncoil
Greatr player but not a great swing.
Her Y position at address too!
Jimmy Ballard swing.
