Everything Padraig Harrington has been working on recently was on full display at the Simmons Bank Championship this weekend. Paddy smashed a 320-yard tee shot on the last hole and hit a three-quarter 5-iron on the green to set up the birdie that would give him a two-shot win over Y.E. Yang. It was the fourth straight year Harrington won…..

“I recommend ‘movement hygiene' before speeding up the system.”

People often ask about the work Chen and I are doing, and the answer is: a lot! Recently, we’ve been concentrating on a few key areas: the right hip joint, the right side lateral line, the rotational timing and speed of his body segments, and how he redirects force at the bottom of his swing near impact.

I have never once pushed Chen to focus on speed; instead, I’ve prioritized movement hygiene, and as a result, he’s naturally achieved a ball speed of over 180 mph.

Summer might seem to be the time college students take a break, but Peicheng Chen kept working hard on his game—and the effort paid off this week. He shot 5-under 206 over 54 holes at the Bethpage golf complex to win the prestigious Doc Gimmler event. Chen was....

A frequently asked question is, "What are the most valuable insights from golf biomechanics that can enhance my game without requiring extensive study?"

This question resonates with me, which is why this webinar will focus on the five greatest hits of our biomechanical research. Each hit will be covered, followed by a Q&A session.

Michael Jacobs’ student Xu Zihan broke the women's course record at Rock Hill this past weekend with a 64...

Ground Forces are an incredibly popular—and misunderstood—topic. They've become the talk of the tour golf telecasts and many teachers use the term as a kind of shorthand for….

Trophy season is in full swing, and Peicheng Chen backed up his strong college season with a great victory at one of the Metropolitan Golf Association’s majors—shooting a final-round 65 to win the Ike Stroke Play Championship at Nassau Country Club. The highlight of the week was making four straight birdies….

Bryson DeChambeau wasn’t the only one to have a memorable time in Pinehurst the week of the U.S. Open. Padraig Harrington was officially inducted into World Golf Hall of Fame……

You can’t alter the rules of physics. But you can use the rules surrounding those external forces to effectively multiply the effort you put into your swing. In the next of our series of swing subject Dives, The User’s Guide to Ground Forces will give you…..

New Rock Hill teaching professional Kyle Brey comes to Long Island with an extensive track record of playing success. A top junior player, Kyle went on to become the No. 1 player at Barry University and competed on various minitours and in state and sectional professional events before transitioning into coaching. He's a valuable resource for any player interested in bringing golf improvement from the range to the course…….

With the sun and warmer temperatures, Rock Hill is rounding into great form—and lesson members have been very busy taking advantage of the indoor and outdoor lessons. We have a lot of members who….

For the last few months, it has really felt like Peicheng Chen was going to break out and win a big college tournament. Today, it happened. He put in an impressive performance at the Big East Men's Golf Championship, shooting……

The biomechanical analysis of a swing is a massive undertaking—even when you have cutting-edge software to crunch the numbers like we do at Jacobs 3D. With a subject that complex, it can often be very helpful to break it down one piece at a time and work your way through it systematically…..

Sometimes a score—or even a trophy—doesn't tell the whole story. It's always a thrill to see a student win a tournament, whether it's a flight trophy at a club championship, a college event, or a Tour event. Seeing Padraig Harrington holding the trophy Sunday….

Beta Force is defined as the force a golf puts across the shaft, whether it be forward or backward. The first two images below, from the Science of the Golf Swing, define Beta Force. When a golfer beta forces the club, it is very likely that the club will move….
