Tiger Woods On Distance: Governing Bodies Should Have Been Worried A Long Time Ago

How Tiger Woods inspired Phil Mickelson
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. – Phil Mickelson has often said he owes a lot to Tiger Woods. The 50-year-old knows Woods helped golf's popularity soar, and with it, so did the purses and exposure for sponsorship opportunities. This allowed someone as successful as Mickelson to have a very fruitful career. But as Mickelson returns to the PGA TOUR at the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP @ SHERWOOD this week, fresh off claiming his second PGA TOUR Champions win in as many starts, he was praising Woods for another aspect of his own career. His longevity. Mickelson has been competitive on TOUR since winning as an amateur in 1991. “Looking back, I wish I had been a little bit more committed fitness‑wise in the height of my career... (but) Tiger pushed me to start training a little bit more, which has helped me elongate my career,” Mickelson said Wednesday at Sherwood Country Club. During the last few years, Mickelson has significantly added length to his game despite his age, but while he wished he’d been even fitter, he says he doesn’t regret not chasing “bombs” earlier in his career. As Bryson DeChambeau sets new marks for ball speed and distance, Mickelson says it just wouldn’t have been feasible in his time. “During the prime of my career we really didn't have launch monitors, so we weren't able to dial a lot of this stuff in. A lot of this was by feel and seeing the ball and using vision to see, oh, it's spinning too much, it's floating. We didn't have the precision to dial things in the way we do now,” Mickelson said. ”Now guys that are hitting it in the 180‑mile‑an‑hour ball speeds are getting pushed to go to the 190s because of Bryson and a lot of guys have to do that to keep up.” While Mickelson will continue to work on the speed that is comfortable for him and his play, the 44-time TOUR winner is mindful of accuracy with driver. It has been a problem for him throughout his career. “I actually feel there's a point of diminishing return about 182‑ to 185‑mile‑an‑hour ball speed. I think once you get over that, I don't know if you're really getting out of it what you put in, meaning a lot of courses won't allow for that advantage to be taken if you get in the 190s,” Mickelson explained. “Holes dogleg, you have tighter landing areas, there's only a couple holes a golf course where it can really help you and I feel like most guys are already at that optimum distance of 182‑ to 185‑mile‑an‑hour ball speed.” The veteran is full of confidence again after another victory against his former foes. He became just the third player to win in his first two starts on the PGA TOUR Champions with a win in the Dominion Energy Charity Classic last weekend. But he knows he needs to step it up to compete on the PGA TOUR. “I'm excited to compete and come off of last week's event on (PGA TOUR Champions) and try to play, compete against the young guys. This is a fun opportunity for me,” he said. “It's been really fun for me to play and compete on (PGA TOUR Champions), a lot more so than I thought it would be. I'm surprised how much fun I'm having, how much fun it is to see some of the same guys that I've seen for so many years and haven't had a chance to be with them for a number of years now. I seem to get a little bit of confidence and I'm hoping to bring that over into this event. “But the penalty for a miss is much more severe on the regular TOUR, the pin placements are a little bit more difficult. The length isn't as different as I thought. We play the back tees on the Champions Tour and it can play every bit as long, but the courses out here are a lot more penalizing. I have to be a little bit more precise.”
“The genie’s out of the bag now” – Tiger Woods
The distance debate in golf is continuing. The great Tiger Woods weighs in on the discussion, talks about his form and his favorite fans on Tour.
What's in Tiger's bag?
A driver head and putter grip. That’s all that has changed since Tiger Woods notched his record-tying 82nd victory at last year’s ZOZO Championship. Tiger’s bag is studied, mulled over, and marveled at more than any other player’s in history —and rightly so after 82 wins, 15 majors, and thousands of jaw-dropping highlights. So, what are the things we can learn as we take another look into the bag? Well, for starters let’s focus on spin/loft. Tiger loves spin wherever he can find it, preferring to have too much loft rather than not enough. If you look at his iron lofts, they are basically a club weaker than his competitors’. This is for two reasons: 1) He is very particular about carry, spin, and launch windows. These are non-negotiable. He’s been hitting his irons a certain distance since he was 18. If it ain’t broke... 2) Controlling dynamic loft. It has always been Tigers’ preference to “de-loft” his irons to get more out of them than play with stronger lofts. It’s actually an old school philosophy but who is going to argue with the guy? You can hit a predictable golf shot leaning the shaft forward. Finally, look at his pitching wedge and sand wedge. He has a seven-degree gap between the clubs, from 49 to 56 degrees. That’s larger than most of his peers but Tiger knows exactly how to turn his 56 into a 52 and control spin and distance. His 56-degree wedge is now effectively three clubs in one with multiple shots built into it. Could all TOUR players do this? Probably. But with the trust and craftsmanship that Tiger does? Probably not. This is what Tiger will have in the bag this week at the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP @ SHERWOOD in Thousand Oaks, California.
