0 Comments Published August 10th, 2008 in A+Featured Golf News, Golf News, padraig harrington, sergio garcia.
Padraig Harrington picks up his back-to-back major championship, the PGA Championship and the Birtish Open.
Meanwhile, Sergio Garcia was in the lead most of the day until the 16th hole, where he put his 2nd shot in the lateral hazard where the green is surrounded mostly by water. His bogey there might have cost him the championship as Sergio did not make a bogey until that point. (He was at 4 under until 16th hole)
Padraig Harrington picks up a clutch-win here with 1-putts on 16, 17, and 18th hole. His putter has found him another win while his driving was erratic during the last couple holes.
For the final round, Padraig Harrington shoots a 3-under (4-under for today) and Sergio Garcia shoots a 1-under(2-under today).
Even though Sergio Garcia didn’t win today, it was still a very good score on this course anytime you shoot under par.

0 Comments Published August 6th, 2008 in Golf Links, Golf News.
Even though Tiger Woods may not be playing in the PGA Championships this year due to his knee injury, he is clearly showing everyone the secret to winning a PGA Championship.
It’s so obvious that we cannot see it but the black nike hat and the red nike shirt are both part of Tiger believe in religiously.
For this year’s champion, let’s hope it’s someone who has been winning consistently so far as I have highhopes for some tour pros.
Here’s all the important internet links you will need this weekend starting tomorrow for the 2008 PGA Championship coverage:

The former Master winner will be back on the winning-train officially. We should expect him to win couple more majors in the next few years.

Parker McLachlin Iron Swing Analysis
0 Comments Published August 5th, 2008 in A+Featured Swing Analysis, Parker McLachlin, Swing Tips, Swing Vision, swing analysis.
Let’s take a look at Parker McLachlin’s iron swing, the winning swing of Reno Tahoe Open. (Too bad Michelle Wie didn’t make the cut AGAIN!)

At takeaway, notice that Parker’s clubface is actually pointing down at the ground, a little too closed. This causes lots of pulls and balls that will start left and go left. It’s best to have rotated a little more here for crisp contact.

At half-way, Parker looks pretty good.

At top of his swing, Parker is in perfect plane.

At half-way down, Parker looks great.

After impact, Parker is slightly outside the plane, meaning he swung slightly inside-out. Very good stuff.

Parker may have a pretty good swing and he has won a PGA Tour event to prove it with a round of 10 under on Friday of 62.
Here’s Parker McLachlin’s iron swing in slow motion:
