Adding extra movements

Erik J. Barzeski is a Golf Digest Best in State Teacher and the co-author of the book Lowest Score Wins. He's a really smart guy about a wide range of things in golf, which is probably why this takeaway tip really clicked for me.

If you suffer from an inside takeaway—like I and so many others do—a common issue is moving your arms too far around your body, pulling your arms behind you, or rotating your wrists too much.

Measure the movements on GEARS, as Barzeski has, and he explains the recipe for a really has just three ingredients:

• Hinge the club up ⬆️
• Turn your thumbs slightly to your right ↗️
• Turn your body 🔄

It doesn't matter what tour Tyrrell is playing on, you're going to see a lot of emotion from the fiery Brit. That was certainly the case on Thursday morning at the DP World Tour Championship as Hatton, now an ex-LIV golfer, missed a three-footer for par on the 14th hole. And, well, didn't take it well:

Rather than go the typical anger route, Hatton went with the whole shocked routine, trying to get his playing partners to acknowledge that he had been robbed. But as the announcer amusingly notes, it seemed like no one else cared. In any event, Hatton would eventually make that bogey putt and shoot two under par. He's currently three behind first-round leader Joost Luiten.

The tributes are pouring in for the longtime NBC Golf play-by-play man, who passed away at the age of 64. One of his longest-running colleagues, Roger Maltbie, called into Golf Channel on Thursday morning, and did as good a job as he could have at keeping it together. "This is a tough one, Rich [Lerner]," Maltbie said. "I mean, really tough." A choked up Maltbie was able to gather himself and add that losing Hicks was not merely losing a colleague or a nice guy, it was like "losing a pal."  

The golf world woke up to sad news on Thursday morning that longtime NBC announcer Dan Hicks—best known for his work covering the PGA Tour and Olympics—had passed away at the age of 64. Tributes poured in from around the sports world, many featuring the same three words:

Expect anything different?

The call of Tiger Woods' putt on the 18th hole of the 2008 U.S. Open to force a playoff vs. Rocco Mediate stands as Hicks' most iconic. Seated alongside longtime broadcast partner Johnny Miller, Hicks summed up the competitive resolve of Woods with a simple query that will echo through golf history for decades to come.

Hicks is survived by his wife, fellow sportscaster Hannah Storm, and their three daughters.

That's a big statement, but it comes from a guy who would know. That would be former hockey player Ryan Whitney, now a Barstool Sports personality, who is one of the 6 golfers competing for a $4 million prize that will be split three ways in the event. The sixth and final episode of the Internet Invitational comes out Thursday at 1 p.m. ET and features Whitney's Red Team consisting of "Big John" and Salim Sirur against the White Team of Fat Perez, Bobby Ray and fellow Barstooler, Riggs. Our Shane Ryan is the latest convert to what has quickly become the Super Bowl of YouTube Golf. And before the finale drops, get caught up with our recaps of Episode 4 and Episode 5.
