There is so much wrong with this article that I ran across whilst idly scrolling the news on my phone after I’d woken up this morning.
At first, I thought I must be still asleep, so I bookmarked it until I’d had the benefit of a cup of coffee and another hour with my eyes open, but sadly, I had read what I read correctly.
Before I get into this, a couple of points.
I am finding Modern Golf ever more laughable and, to keep my sanity, I have noticed that I am becoming a little, shall we say, “light-hearted” in my writing style.
It helps me cope with the trauma of what I see day in day out, so bear with me, if you will.
Update: Since posting this, I have uncovered evidence that takes the Tiger Squat back to his Sean Foley days, and it has just gotten worse and worse over time. /update
I have been wracking my brain for the past few days, trying to think of where the Squat & Dump move came from.
I have seen the Tiger Woods Tai-Chi routine, of course, but it wasn’t until I went looking for some old Tiger Woods swings that I found it – and yes, you can lay the blame on this horrific move on him and his coach at the time.
I can only call this new swing phenomenon what it looks like to me.
I will forever now call it the “Squat & Dump” Golf Swing, and I will say “Rest In Peace” at this time to all of the leading legs that will be destroyed by this horrific move.
If you look at the mechanics involved, there is no way that people will be able to swing this way for many years before, at the least, they destroy their leading knee joint.
