Retief Goosen is in the lead at the World Golf Championships this week.  At 4 under par, it’s hard to tell whether that will keep up by the end of the day as Steve Stricker is about to finish with some more birdies.

My predictions for this week’s winner?

Well, I have no predictions really this week as there’s so many great players playing.  If I had to put some bets, I might have it on Andy Kim, Kenny Perry, or maybe Retief Goosen.

My prediction is that either a multi-PGA Tour winner this year or a hiding veteran player like Retief will win it.

Is this 4th major?

No, of course not, the course is too easy if the leader is shooting 4 under par.  WGC cannot be considered a major until the courses are made way tougher.

With the World Golf Championship Bridgestone Invitational coming up this week, it will be exciting to watch as the top players in the world battle it out.  Although Tiger Woods won’t be there, we will get to see some action by the youngster like Chev Reavie, Anthony Kim, and of course older folks like Kenny Perry.

Clearly, there’s a lot more room for others to win that there’s no more Tiger Woods at least until some time next year.

With Tiger taking majority of wins on the PGA Tour during a typical PGA Tour year, this year’s going to be a great chance for anyone else to take advantage and finish at the top on Sunday.

Yey, Kenny Perry wins this week’s Buick Open. Although not an avid fan of Kenny Perry, he certainly has proven himself by winning twice this year and also coming up runner-up once.

So, why is Kenny winning at 48 years old while all the youngsters in the 20s are struggling?

Well, golf is a game of smart thinking more than it’s about power and accuracy.

Kenny Perry does not have a perfect swing by any means but he does very consistent with his swing, mostly controlled by arms and hands.

At top of Kenny’s swing, you can note that his left shoulder comes over his right leg.

On the downswing, Kenny keeps his lower body quiet while letting the hands and arms do most of the work.

At impact, you can see clearly that Kenny really “swings” the club rather than hit the ball.

After impact, notice how Kenny’s right foot is implanted on the ground. Kenny really tries to swing nice and smooth, which is what is required for a hands and arms swing.

If Kenny swung any harder, all his balls would hook or go left.

What to learn from Kenny’s iron swing?

You need to note that in order to be accurate with your irons, you need to let the club do most of the work for you. Of course, you can give the ball a real smack in the back but you probably won’t be consisten that way.

Here’s Kenny Perry’s iron swing in action:

Tom Lehman is another player who “dips”, sorta like Kenny Perry. He is another proof on the tour that you do not need a perfect swing to play great golf.
