K.J Choi had a magnificent tournament this past weekend and is now ranked #4 in the FEDEX standings. Woohoo, I'm quickly becoming a big fan of his stoic and competitive game. Hope he wins many more!

It's nice to see people who don't win all the time at the top in my opinion.

Great year so far KJ and I hope you can keep it up!

Yeah, really. Great to see KJ doing well on tour. Too bad he didn't win the Palmer too: that would have been an awesome three.

Yeah, he is having a really good year. It would be great to see him win a major.

I was watching the highlights on the Golf Channel, and the folks on Golf Central Primetime said that they thought KJ would be much bigger in the US if his English were better. I think they meant in terms of ad appearances and fan support. To me this is not an important factor, but I was wondering what y'all thought.

I love how consistent he is with his driver!

Definitely won my respect for that fact alone, not to mention the rest of his game.

Dayum, K.J is on fire this weekend. Although I am pretty sure he won't need to donate US$10 million anytime soon, but I do want to see him win as many out of the 4 FED EX tournies as possible. First round his putting was ridiculously laser-like, didn't get to see the 2nd round - will try to catch a re-run of that. Go K.J!!!!

      My Swing (Retoid)

      By retoid · Posted

      This is my second year playing golf, I started last season but have always struggled with a slice. I've tried multiple things to try and fix the slice: Closing the face. Rotating my right hand out or clockwise in the grip. Keeping the club head low in my back swing. Focusing on a straight swing path. Trying the straighter arms like Bryson D. (as seen in the videos above) Trying to not let me hips get too far ahead of my down swing. Trying to keep my shoulders down until after I've made contact with the ball. Etc. I recently changed to the straighter arms which has helped me adjust away from such a drastic slice. So it has helped a bit. Before that, I was trying to keep the club head low in the back swing and this was the most helpful in correcting the slice, however it drastically removed power and distance in the strikes and would even sometimes result in a hook. About a couple months ago I had a single lesson with my driver and learned some helpful things, but have since struggled to perform what I learned well. One of the things in the lesson was to keep my shoulder down more in the the down swing until after making contact with the ball. This would help the slice a bit, sometimes drawing the ball. To even it out, I was instructed to rotate my hips a bit earlier in the down swing. What I have noticed however with the earlier hip rotation is that it's really hurting my lower back a lot. Since backing off on that it's helped not injure my low back as much. I believe my main issue might possibly be the swing path, being a Pull Slice.   See above, was mid typing when you posted. I have never watched Moe Norman's swing to be honest. I have never measure my hip rotation, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on that after you read about my hip rotation / back pain issue.

      Two questions… Are you trying to swing like Moe Norman? What's your hip turn like? Have you ever measured it?
