Short Game Secrets with the LPGA’s Gail Graham - How to Get the Ball in the Air! #lpga #golftips

LPGA instructor Gail Graham demonstrates essential short game techniques to help golfers reliably get the ball up in the air around the greens. By maintaining weight on the front foot and trusting the natural loft of the wedge, players eliminate common thin and fat strikes. Presented by PGA Women's Clinics.

• Trust the natural loft of the club head to lift the ball rather than attempting to scoop it.
• Keep weight favored on your lead foot throughout the backswing and follow-through.
• Focus on brushing the turf beneath and slightly past the ball at impact.
• Maintain smooth acceleration through impact to ensure consistent trajectory and control.
