Jon Rahm #1 Driver in the World (Golf Swing) Extreme Slow-Motion
Вставка

- His swing is short largely because of Rahm being born with a club right foot, as he revealed in a recent interview. This limits his range of motion, which is why his swing is naturally MUCH shorter than most.
Instead of trying to lengthen his swing arc, Rahm worked on perfecting his homegrown swing, tailoring his move to his unique body.
Lesson: Don’t chase an ideal of what YOUR swing should look like. There’s no such thing as perfection. Instead, work with a coach who can help YOU tailor YOUR swing to YOUR unique body, built around things YOU CAN DO, not what you cannot do.

I love the music that you add to all these videos. I've been watching them for over 10 years and I always know if a random golf swing video is from your channel, just by the music choice alone. 😄
Thanks, Sean! Appreciate the kind words!🙂
The wrist “roll” to the inside really helps me.
Me too...
Such a simple swing.
Jon Rahm has one of my favorite golf swings on the PGA Tour. It’s unique and interesting, and better yet, it’s one of those golf swings that regular golfers can learn a lot from.
Rahm’s swing isn’t the kind that comes out of a highly technical background. It’s a move that’s largely homegrown and built around his body’s strengths and weaknesses.
Rahm, for as incredible an athlete as he is, isn’t a perfect, prototypical one. He’s really strong, but not the most flexible - but that’s OK, because he’s built his golf swing around both of those things.
Had a hand procedure recently possibly caused by repetition of hitting balls. Discussed Rahm, Morikawa, Johnson, Koepka, Westwood, Trevino and Hogan with the consultant. He was of the view someone like Rahm will either get away with this top position due to his physical make up or at some point might suffer for it. And anyone not able to afford medical treatment aka club golfers were taking a risk, they should use their hands and each arm in ways that dissipate the stress as much as possible.
As you probably know, Rahm has mobility issues in his ankles and hips - the reason for the very short, restricted backswing. Jon could go longer, but he’d only put more stress on his ankles and hips.
The swing he uses now is the one he’s worked on to get his ballflight up in the air and shape the ball both ways. It’s built around HIS OWN very unique build.
Jon Rahm the best example on Tour of getting the most (including a major) out of a unique set of circumstances. YOUR swing should be YOURS and YOURS alone. Simply put, GET BETTER AT BEING YOU!
Very interesting insight guys
@@MrKorra00 Thanks, I hope we made sense? Cheers!🙂
@@RollYourRock You definitely did, i knew Jon’s left ankle is shorter than the right one. But I didn’t know all the implications the grip has in golf. I recently started watching golf, and i love the mental aspect of the game, as the edges between golfers are too narrow between them.
@@MrKorra00 You are absolutely correct! At the highest level it's just about always comes down to who has the strongest mind...
I like Rahm but #1 driver? I don’t think that’s correct. Strokes gained off the tee for 2022 season is Rahm, but the previous 2 years it was Bryson (by a considerable margin). Bryson isn’t on the list because of the LIV divide, not because he dropped in strokes gained. Therefore, I think Bryson is still the best driver in professional golf.
How's Bryson doin' on that LIV tour? - For Rahm, the victory TODAY came as the continuation of a recent run of strong play: he logged two top-10 finishes in the FedEx Cup playoffs, finished T2 at the BMW PGA, won the Spanish Open and finished T4 at the CJ Cup before his arrival in Dubai. It was also a fitting return for Rahm at Jumeirah’s Earth Course, where he now has three wins (plus another top five) in four appearances.
@@RollYourRock per your video title, I thought we were talking about driving, not victories or placement in tournaments? If the discussion is now about those things, then perhaps you need a new video title? I dare say that if Bryson still received stats, then he would still be the leader in strokes gained off the tee, even if Rahm is the better player (which is a different discussion).
@@Somefatdude Point taken, but you are fully aware of how important solid driving is for finishing high up the leaderboard. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big Bryson DeChambeau fan. But I know who I would pick if I REALLY needed someone to hit one long AND straight.
