TP&C: Tony Romo Part 3

You may be aware that Tony is a stellar athlete who up to now has played golf strictly in his spare time and as a hobby. Now that he has retired as the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys for the less injurious position of NFL analyst he is ready and able to put more work into his golf game and would like to become a serious amateur competitor. I met Tony in January of 2013 at the Isleworth Invitational when I was invited to join his group for a practice round on the back 9 after my 3 playing partners had retired for the day. Upon introducing myself Tony remarked that he had watched the video I had done commenting on Peter Kostis’ television comparison of Tony’s swing with that of Tom Brady.

TP&C: Brad Faxon Part 4

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

I’ve known Brad for quite some time and have worked with him on and off for years, although we have never lasted more than a month or two at any one time. Brad is a studious swing guy, and has seen just about every teacher you could name. I asked him one time how many, and he said “I counted 65, and those were guys (and women) that I paid”. With his new job as lead announcer for Fox Brad has tried to keep up with all the new “teachers du jour” and it is fun to get his take on what is going on in the business as I don’t pay much attention to it.

TP&C: In Person Lesson with Aaron Baddeley July 2015

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

I think if you watch the video Scott Hamilton posted on Golf WRX (where, by the way, I have an article coming out this week) you will see the similarities in this video I sent Aaron a year ago. Aaron’s a nice guy. Great to see him get his game back and get back into the winner’s circle.

TP&C: Kevin Streelman Part 5

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

Kevin, A.J. and I are really excited about the coming PGA Tour season, and when you watch these swings I think you will see why. His swing keeps improving, and this week we really made a big positive difference by focusing on…

TP&C: Aaron Baddeley Part 2

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

While I usually just observe and report in on the swings of established tour players, in this case I offer more in the way of suggestions as what he is doing here is obviously not working all that well.

TP&C: Kevin Streelman Part 4

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

This is a video summary of the work we just completed in Scottsdale. It was 112 degrees but we got in some great range and short game time. I think you’ll agree that Kevin’s swing is continuing to improve, and his ball striking stats (12th in total ball striking on the PGA Tour) are evidence of that.

TP&C: Kevin Streelman Part 3

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

This one’s pretty simple: I just wanted to show you how good Kevin’s swing is looking. I compare to the first swing I saw of him on TV in 2010, and we have gotten back to the good stuff in that swing and improved it. The most noticeable difference is in the posture, which used […]

TP&C: Brad Faxon Part 3

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

I went down to Jupiter to spend a couple days with Brad at Old Palm and we got some nice work in. I have always told Brad that given his problems with the approach being high and sometimes stuck he should strive to get the club on plane at the top (less across the line) […]

TP&C: Brian Urlacher

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

At 6’4 and 260 lbs. of solid muscle (no discernible body fat) Brian, future Hall of Fame linebacker for the Chicago Bears, is an imposing figure, especially in shorts and a tight golf shirt (seems like everybody looks big in a football uniform, at least on TV). The amazing thing about Brian’s golf game is […]

TP&C: Nick Price

By Wayne | Tour Players and Celebrities

This was a real treat for me, as you can imagine. Nick is a Hall of Famer, former #1 in the world, but has struggled recently with his driver and his results on the Champions Tour have not been up to his standards. I was in Florida at Old Palm with Brad Faxon and Brad, […]
