More broken bodies lie in the wake of broken set-ups. Tiger has just undergone another surgery on his left knee. Thanks, Hank. Add Dustin Johnson, Jason Day, and Brooks Koepka, and we have a pattern. All four right-handed golfers have left knee surgeries on tap.
In my book, The Open Stance and Three Short Game Lessons, I told the world that Tiger’s knee issue is the result of a decidedly apbrupt posting move prior to impact. Apparently, the younger studs didn’t read up. They have employed broken set-ups. And now they have a problem.
Once a knee gives way, surgeries pile up. Careers end due to turf toe, for crying out loud. How much more uncertain are futures reliant upon walking five miles a day on a bum leg. In time, we recruit other body parts to make up for our damaged parts. In doing so, we degrade recruited ligaments, tendons, and bones by developing muscle imbalances to protect the original damage.
The Golf Channel just went over lead knee damage and diagnosis, so Tripp obviously read my stuff. So, let me say the following: PEOPLE! IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR BODILY HEALTH…
Open your stance, and play golf.
