TIGER WOOD'S SWING

DOCTOR JAMES WANG, A PODIATRIST FROM CALIFORNIA STATES THAT "WHEN ONE PART OF YOUR GOLF SWING IS WEAK, YOU OVERCOMPENSATE".  TIGER WOODS IS FAVOURED TO WIN THE MASTERS THIS YEAR, BUT HE HAS KNEE ISSUES GOING ALL THE WAY TO HIS DAYS IN STANFORD.  THE INCREDIBLE TORQUE HE PUTS ON HIS LOWER LEGS WITH EVERY SWING IS A CONSTANT THREAT - ALMOST TO THE EXTENT OF A RUNNING BACK CUTTING AGAINST THE GRAIN.  IT ONLY TAKES A LITTLE PAIN TO THROW A SWING OUT OF SYNC.  IT CAN ALSO BE A MENTAL THING.  WOODS LOOKED AS HEALTHY AS EVER AT BAY HILL, BUT UNLIKE THE RELATIVELY FLAT COURSE AT BAY HILL, AUGUSTA NATIONAL WILL BRING HILLS AND AWKWARD STANCES.

MOST FOOT SPECIALISTS, INCLUDING FOOT DOCTORS, CHIROPODISTS AND PODIATRISTS AGREE THAT ANY INJURIES TO THE LOWER LIMB SHOULD BE ADDRESSED ASAP SO AS NOT TO FURTHER COMPLICATE THE INJURY AND DELAY HEALING.
