[TIPS] 7 Key Positions Of Jordan Spieth’ Success

Jordan Alexander Spieth is very young (24 years old) and talented American professional golfer, there is no doubt about it! He is a former world No.1 in the Official World Golf Ranking, a 2-time major winner and the champion of FedEx Cup 2015. One of the fundamental elements making this young man’s career glorious is his position of striking on golf courses.

1. It can be observed that Spieth turned his shoulders much to the right while maintaining his hips rotation minimal. Most golfers will try to follow the rule of 90-degree shoulders, 45-degree hips. To Jordan, this ratio is 90/25, creating a burst speed in the downswing and at impact.

2. This position pictures 2 key points. Firstly, Spieth begins by shifting his weight to the left and on his left leg, and also slightly leaning toward the target. Secondly, the clubshaft and his left forearm form a precisely and necessary 90-degree angle for a nice shot.

3. It is easy to notice the separation between Jordan’s shoulders and hips, which helps widen the hitting area for a sufficient speed at impact. This is also an essential technique for touring professionals.

4. At this contact point, a weight shifting to the left leg can be seen. Besides, the logo on Spieth’s left glove is pointing straight toward the target, signaling for an accurate and nice line.

5. Concentrate on the bend of Jordan’s body and head over the right. This move has 2 good uses, one is to keep the head behind the ball’s line, and the other is to straighten the right arm, release the lower body to create an extra power.

6. In this position, his right arm is kept straight over the left, at the same time both arms are still in front of his chest. This only means a full powder and precise swing
