After a fast start to his career on the PGA Tour (winning the first major he ever played in, winning Rookie of the Year, making the Ryder Cup team and President’s Cup team, finishing in the top 30 money winners 4 straight years) Keegan Bradley’s performance has suffered over the last two. In 2015 he had 3 top 10’s and finished 64th on the money list, and in 2016 he had two top 10’s in 26 events and finished 114th on the money list, not what you would expect from what had been a rising star. The start of the 2017 season, however, has seen a nice return to form, with 2 top 10’s and 4 top 25’s in the first 4 events. In this video, I look at Bradley’s swing at the CIMB Classic in Malaysia, and I compare it to a swing taken from early 2014. It appears that he has tightened up his swing considerably, moving his left arm more across his chest so that it gets to the top in a more horizontal position than the swing you see from 2014, which is obviously more out away from him and upright. I have always liked his swing despite the exaggerated address position, and I think that this recent change will be to his advantage moving forward. He is a talented player and I would expect him to return to the top 20 by the end of the year.
