Being a smaller guy, the only way I can generate clubhead speed is to fire my hips. I'm not going to overpower anything, so to gain distance I have to create torque between my lower and upper body by firing my hips through impact.
Unfortunately, because I have quick hips, if I can't keep the club in front of my body, it gets stuck behind me, and I block shots left of the target.
But I've been working hard on fixing that -- I realized that my 80-percent swing hits the ball just as far as when I go all out. The reason I won twice in 2007 is because I put the ball in play. I was catching it in the middle of clubface to set up the strongest part of my game -- my iron play. I want a ball flight that looks like it might want to draw but stays straight. When I hit it like that, I know I can win.
