Swing Analysis: Sergio Garcia

By Wayne | Videos: Swing Analysis

One of the best ball-strikers in the game, Sergio has been out of the winner’s column on the PGA Tour since the Player’s Championship 4 years ago. He ended that string with a nice win at the Wyndham Championship last week, aided by his usual strong long game and some much improved putting. Here we look at Sergio’s swing from 1999 to the present, and we see that while he has modified his swing somewhat it still features his signature moves wherein he creates tremendous lag, or angle between his left arm and the club shaft in the forward swing, and the close proximity of his hands to his body as he passes through the impact area, as he moves through the ball with his shaft covering his original address shaft plane almost perfectly.
