Fix Your Slice FAST (Steal This From Tennis)

Matt Baker explains how to eliminate a slice by adopting a tennis-style 'up and under' movement. By visualizing the club dropping behind the body during the transition, golfers can shallow the shaft and approach the ball from the inside for more consistent contact.

• The slice is often caused by an 'over the top' move where the club swings across the ball.
• Think like a tennis player: move the 'racquet' up, then let it drop under the path of the ball.
• Shallowing the club in the transition allows for an inside-out strike.
• Athletic 'feels' from other sports can simplify complex golf swing mechanics.
