Michelle Wie has one of the nicest golf swings in all of golf, lpga or pga, has been on 570 yd par 5's in 2, and has a great pair of legs to look at...........Perfect combo for me.

However, I think Wie is going to have the same problem with her left knee as Tiger has. Compare the torque at the moment of impact. They are both the same.

KyRock75:

Seems to me that one of the most important stats was left out whether intentionally or not: Scoring Avg. S. Stricker 69.23 - N. Watney 69.43 - L. Donald 69.48 Y. Tseng 69.67- C. Kerr 70.44 - I.K. Kim 70.48

Well, that's the most important one of them all and if the men lead it they must be better. Just looking at the stats, no bias.

I agree......she is young so it will take some time......she does the exact same move through the impact zone. I played competitive golf as a junior and my golf coach said i needed to change my swing to avoid this problem.......told me i wouldn't be able to walk by the time i was 30 if i continued with that swing type.

I never did change and had 2 knee surgeries...1 at 21 yrs and another at 27yrs old. Guess i should have listened.....lol.

I have modified my swing now by opening my front foot more to allow for a smoother transfer and to not jolt the heck out of my knee......just wish i could play as well. Still able to break par every once in a while though...lol
