In comparing Rory’s swing over the past 9 years we see some differences in the backswing, namely the takeaway and the position of the club at the top, but in all the swings we see Rory add posture into impact and follow through and get through the shot with an amount of side bend unattainable by most normal golfers. Rory has always stayed tall in the backswing and usually pulls his right arm a bit behind him as he gets to the top, then dropping the hands slightly back and down before recovering and getting the right arm back in front of him, something again that most people couldn’t manage. In his latest swings I see him firming up his wrists at the top and keeping his right arm more in front of him, which I believe are definite improvements. The club is pointing more on plane (to the left) at the top, which requires less flattening of the shaft in transition. He is smashing his driver and dialing in the irons, and when his putter gets hot he could reel off some big wins in 2019.
