Golf tips: Swing like Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods

Hitting consistent mid-irons

Tiger Woods' emphatic victory at Hoylake in the 2006 Open Championship at Royal Liverpool was built on the precision of his iron play, both off the tee and from the middle of the fairway.

His crisp ball striking, beautifully highlighted by the white hot, rock solid fairways, was the result of a brisk tempo that combined power with accuracy.

Notice how, through impact, his hands and waist are pointing in the same direction. His arms and body are working in perfect synchronisation to optimise clubhead speed while keeping the face on line. If your iron play is inconsistent, pay close attention to the movement of your upper body and arms to ensure they are working in perfect harmony through the downswing.
