Matt Fitzpatrick Wins With MAX CUP in Both Wrists (Here's Why It Works)
Handsy Golf instructor breaks down Matt Fitzpatrick's unique 'Max Cup' wrist technique and strong lead-hand grip. The video provides a three-step progression using a Compact Club to build a swing focused on driving force into the handle for elite iron play.
Adopt a 'Superman' posture with an expanded chest and rolled-back shoulders to support rotation.
Use a very strong lead-hand grip (3.5 to 4 knuckles visible) paired with a weaker trail-hand grip.
Maintain a 'cupped' (extended) position in both wrists at the top of the swing to maximize leverage.
Isolate hand-to-handle mechanics by practicing drills from a seated position to remove lower-body distractions.
Drive energy into the handle rather than focusing on 'perfect' backswing positions.
