In this episode, we’re joined by renowned coach and co-founder of the Titleist Performance Institute, Dave Phillips, for a deep dive into how the body truly drives the golf swing. We explore why there’s no single “perfect” swing and how understanding a player’s physical capabilities is critical to building a repeatable, efficient motion. Dave shares behind-the-scenes insights from working with elite players like Jon Rahm, including how limitations can actually become strengths when properly managed. We also discuss the role of technology, biomechanics, and AI in the future of coaching—and where human coaching still matters most. Dave also discusses how he co-founded For Wellness with Phil Mickelson, and the benefits of the products for health and recovery. If you’ve ever wondered why your swing changes or how to build more consistency, this conversation will change how you think about improvement.
