Happy to announce two of my students have both Clinched the #1 Ranking for Juniors in China for both Male and Female. Sandy Cao 曹欣妤 and Jordan Zhao 赵均霖 have also both won the China Volvo Junior Masters this week which make this the first time at this big Major. Both hardworking students have trusted the process along the way and Sandy has also been picked to be in the China Olympic team for golf for the 2020 summer Olympic in Beijing. It’s been great working with her over a year now from when she was ranked #11 and now taken the #1 spot. She had so much talent and discipline with a great attitude work ethic to boot. Both have aspirations of the LPGA and PGA tour and they are definitely starting wirh the right guidance and moving in the right direction.

Congratulations to all those students and participants who played our first golf event sponsored by Fala Golf and Flying Academy at Hongqiao Golf Club in Shanghai. A great introduction and launching ground for tournament golf. Special congratulations to Johnny who came first in his age group 5-8 Thomas ages 9-12 1st place, and Kevin Zhu 2nd place 9-12

Simple put, one cannot ever create power, golf ball control or lower their scores if they are not able to first strike the ball consistently in the center of the club face. When focusing on 1. center face contact will one be able to produce control of ball, more
Consistent ball carry distances, more spin and distance allowing you produce lower scores.

Here I hit 20 shots with a pitching wedge focusing on a short compact swing with smooth tempo. Easy to produce consistent carry distances and spin, stopping the ball close to where it lands.

So yesterday I went to check my driver with the Titleist Rep. in Shanghai. Wow, again great progress. Once I was fitted for the right shaft, kick point, flex, weight, loft and the right ball the difference was pretty profound. Technology should be embraced at every level. Pro V1X kept my launch angle up, but backspin down, like magic.

A position not many golfers focus on. Also not something many coaches even discuss or work on with students. I have spent a long time working on this position and getting here at high speeds, and it produces amazing results, ball control, and distance. Understanding what to do is one thing, but realizing why your not able to get here and how to fix it is the key to finding a good coach. Send me a video of your swing with wedge and driver at post impact, then I will give you the keys to get here and producing a tight draw. Email me your video to [email protected]
