Rory's focus on creating a wide arc is evident here. His lower body is super-stable.
Rory "stands up" the shaft more than Tiger. This no doubt makes the club feel lighter.
He's really clearing his hips. His head hangs back so he can power through with his arms.
Rory is swinging out to the right—for a draw.
