This Driver Tip From a PGA Tour Player Changes EVERYTHING
PGA Tour winner Matt Wallace joins Alex Elliott at Moor Park to share elite course management strategies. Wallace demonstrates how to control driver flight, play effectively from thick rough by reading the lie first, and transition from a robotic putting stroke to an artistic, feel-based approach.
Always analyze the lie before selecting a shot; the grass behind the ball dictates the spin and launch more than your technique.
Stick to one shot shape off the tee (like a fade) to simplify your dispersion pattern and remove half the golf course.
Professionals rarely attack flags directly; they aim for 'safe' sections of the green where misses won't result in high scores.
For chipping under pressure, use a 'toe down' setup to prevent the leading edge from digging into the turf.
Avoid being too robotic on the greens; focus on visualization and matching speed to the break rather than perfect mechanics.
