MNT-Golfers change their swing and key swing mechanics throughout the course of 18 holes of walked golf, which may influence performance, according to a study presented at the 55th American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Annual Meeting in Indianapolis.
Many studies have examined the mechanics of the golf swing to determine what aspects of the swing are most important to performance; however, researchers Nick R. Higdon and Eric Dugan set out to research how the golf swing changes throughout a round of walked golf. The researchers examined the relationship between time (playing 18 holes of walked golf), mechanical variables and performance variables related to the golf swing.
