Listen "Dave Phillips - Body, Heart and Mind"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode I chat with Dave Phillips who is the co founder of the Titleist Performance Institute(TPI) which is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing . A golf digest top 50 coach Dave has learned alongside some of the smartest in golf including David Leadbetter, Mac O’Grady , Ramsey McMaster and through the years has worked with some of the best players in the world like Tom Kite, Hal Sutton, Brad Faxon and currently works with numerous Tour players including Major winner John Rahm. For the club golfer we chat about the everyday physical challenges that you may face, why knowing what your body can and cant do is so important before you work on your swing, how to divide your learning time between the body training and the golf training and even a little chat about putting and how it can be influenced by how we move.From a coaching perspective we discuss Dave’s influences, his swing philosophy, the work he and john Rahm have done and his relationship with Phil Mickelson and the current LIV golf situation.
