“After the winter we can all feel a wee bit rusty,” he says, “and it’s important to make sure the fundamentals – the posture, grip, stance, ball position and alignment – are all working. The majority of faults tend to stem from a breakdown in one of those basic elements.
“It’s a good idea to visit us at The Academy to identify any weaknesses, or, if you’re lucky, to reaffirm that your game’s in a good place which will help to boost your confidence before that first competition of the season.
“We offer pre-season MOTs, including re-gripping, loft and lie checks, a Trackman gapping session to understand your yardages, and a one-hour golf lesson to work on your fundamentals.
“It’s also important to have the right tools, to give you the best chance Clarke and the confidence to focus on each shot, rather than worrying about losing yards. Book a visit with us at the Academy and we’ll have you hitting that sweet spot in no time!”
