Hip flexibility, lower body strength and endurance.

Included this because I like Lauren in a tight sweater even though she's going to have back problems sticking her butt out like that in an attempt to stabilize:

Warning -- I did some of the hip flex exercises in the first vid in post 1 towards the latter part of it and started cramping painfully... got some work to do.

Wouldn't this also increase your driving distance if you have a faster hip turn?


It could.  Better technique helps too.

To have a better/faster hip turn, I would look more at how your hands, arms, and shoulders move in the swing.

If your hands/arms/upper body are doing what they have to do, your hips will move better on their own.  I would be careful about just trying to turn your hips faster.

There is a guy I play with...and I just wish I had his swing.  He stands a bit close to the ball, but he is just freed up to the point where he can swing as fast as he wants and his body just doesn't get in the way.

    • A few thoughts on the past few minutes. I agree that fairways are overrated, but Rory might want to reconsider that view in the short term. For the second time today, Bryson is hitting two shots in a row from the same greenside bunker.   Xander had a similar issue on 12 earlier today, although I think that only happened to him once today.  My mother and I are sitting in my living room commiserating.    Poor Patrick Reed, only bogey of the day on #18.  Shane Lowry had a clean scorecard with 15 pars and 3 birdies.
    • Three great shots from McIlroy's group (Smith and the US Am Champ) on 12.  The amateur won closest to the pin, although I doubt the group had a bet going.
    • I thought complaining about Fleetwood's appearance was my schtick   For real though, I agree with you, and when I see that, especially in a major, I'm confused.  When I play in a multi-day event at my club, I plan my clothing in advance because I want to look my best.   If no one else, their clothing sponsors should do this for them.  I think Nike used to do this with their stable -- I used to look forward to seeing their posts on the Facebook before majors to see how Tiger and Anthony Kim and friends would be dressed. Meanwhile, Jason Day is dressed fairly blandly today.  Who saw that coming?
    • The hell is Thomas Fleetwood wearing? He looks like a divorced dad from 1998. Even the shoes are hideous 
    • I was wondering this and haven't seen it on today's broadcast OR yesterday's, but apparently Cabrera did show up.  He currently has the third highest score for the week and is playing his last hole of this year's event.  I'm not particularly keen to see him, but I was wondering if he was present, and he seems to be.
