Charlie Wi is one of the Korean golfers who have been coming up in the last couple years.  I guess he is using Stack and Tilt swing now but let’s take a look.

To me, Stack and Tilt isn’t a new way of swinging, it’s simply teachers re-making golf swing.

At takeaway, Charlie gets way too inside.  Look at his hands, it’s almost inside his body.

At half-way up, Charlie looks pretty good.

At the top, Charlie is in pretty much perfect plane.

At half-way down, Charlie looks really good and also standing VERY TALL.

At impact, Charlie is looking great.

Charlie Wi has a great swing regardless of what “swing” he is using.  The only iffy part is that his hands get way too inside on the takeaway but he does everything else well.

Here’s Charlie Wi’s stack and tilt Driver swing in action:

In Bee Park - Korean Golfer Wins Women\'s US Open!

It’s not that often a 19 year old wins a U.S. Open, except that InBee Park just did it.

She’s a 19 year old Korean American who has won many other events including 2 U.S. Girls Open in 2002 and 2003, a feat matched only by likes of Tiger Woods.

I did notice her name couple years back but it looks like she has finally broken through by winning a major.

As for female Korean professional golfers, they now now have won 3 of the last 10 U.S. Opens, making them second in the number of U.S. Opens won next to the American ladies in the last 10 years.

Not a bad feat as a whole but the real question is, “why are Korean women golfers winning a LOT?”

What do I mean is that you look at the leaderboard of any LPGA tournament and you will see at least 1 or 2 Korean golfers at the top.

If you ask me, I can tell you that Korean women have always been genetically good at sports that require aiming.  Other than that, they do have rigurous golf schools designed to bring new professional athletes in Korea.  They don’t even have to go to school really, they just play golf all day long.  Now, I don’t think that’s the best way to raise a kid but if your kid’s winning LPGA tournaments at age 19, that’s not bad either.

Heck, I thought Michelle Wie was going to be women’s Tiger Woods.   Maybe she will one day but at this moment, all attention goes to In Bee Park, winner of this year’s U.S. Open and well deserved.
