The Golf Performance Assessment

Most common swing faults and loss of swing efficiency are directly connected to how the body is functioning.

Developed by the Titleist Performance Institute in 2003, using data from thousands of professional and amateur golfers, the Golf Performance Assessment is a multipoint tool that assesses joint mobility, flexibility, stability, strength, balance, and coordination. We also review general physical fitness, current health issues, and medical history.

The Golf Performance Assessment tests:

• Address posture

• Pelvic control

• Torso control

• Squat mobility and stability

• Hip mobility and flexibility

• Back flexibility

• Torso rotation mobility

• Single leg balance

• Shoulder flexibility

• Glute strength

• Neck flexibility

• Wrist mobility

• Power and strength

• Swing speed

We can directly correlate the results of the Movement Screen with possible biomechanical faults in your golf swing. We will then perform a 2D video analysis of your swing to confirm or refute the findings of the screen.

Once the Movement Screen is completed, a “Golf Fitness Handicap” is assigned. Similar to a USGA Handicap, this will serve as your baseline measurement allowing us to formulate a fitness and performance plan to improve your ability to produce an efficient and consistent golf swing.

Once we address your body’s deficits, we will see an improvement in your golf swing. Because no matter how good your golf instruction is or how expensive your equipment is, your body can only do what it is capable of doing. If you improve your body’s ability to move, you will improve your golf swing.
