Scott stated that he is open-minded to exploring…
Golf is a sport that is full of unique actions, and one of the most recent examples of this was seen at The Sentry tournament, where Viktor Hovland showcased his ‘double-pump’ golf swing. Hovland, a multiple-time PGA Tour winner, was playing in his first event of 2025 and stood at four-under-par through his first 31 holes. The moment that caused the biggest reaction was at the driveable par 4 14th, where Hovland used his double-pump swing to great effect. This unique movement may seem unconventional, but Hovland has explained that he uses it strategically in certain situations on the course.…

Collin Morikawa, a professional golfer, has recently implemented a new pre-shot routine during the Sentry tournament. Despite not winning in 2024, Morikawa finished second at the Tour Championship and achieved eight top-10 finishes. Interestingly, he achieved this success despite experiencing his worst ball-striking year on the PGA Tour, finishing 44th in strokes gained: approach. During the offseason, Morikawa took advantage of eight weeks off to experiment with his game, leading to the development of a new pre-shot routine.

Will Zalatoris has made significant changes to his body in the past four months, adding 20 pounds of muscle to improve his golf game. This transformation has been a result of a workout program with performance expert Damon Goddard and a specific diet that consisted of 200 grams of protein and 3,000-4,500 calories per day. Zalatoris explains that he needed to gain weight to provide stability to his back, which has been prone to injuries since turning pro in 2018. By increasing his weight, he believes he can swing at top speeds with less effort, ultimately improving his performance on…
