"Making the swing I want him to make isn't that difficult for him, it's just that there's always going to be traces of every shot he's ever hit."
/Brian Wacker talks to Sean Foley about working with Tiger and it's refreshing on many levels, most noticeably in the honesty department. If only Tiger surrounded himself with more people like Foley...
Anyway, there only one trace of doublespeak and it's fun.
What's been the hardest thing Tiger's had to adjust to?
The pattern of movement is much different than what he's done. He's always moved off the ball, except in junior golf, and then his arms were always out in front of him rather than working in on the arc. But when you have residual motor patterns, they always come back in. Making the swing I want him to make isn't that difficult for him, it's just that there's always going to be traces of every shot he's ever hit.
Is that a nice way of saying even Tiger has swing thought demons like the rest of us?
