Dr. David Wright has been described by Sports Illustrated and Golf Magazine as the "Balance Expert." Golf Digest of Japan has labeled him the "Foremost Expert on Balance" and "... a leader in balance instruction across all sports and industries."
Dr. Wright holds two doctorates and a Golf Digest Top 100 Instructor with over 25 years of research on biomechanics and balance.
He joins "#OntheMark to share his fool-proof system to improving balance and the golf swing. His comprehensive research led to his theory that centers on where a golfer's Center of Mass, Hip Turn and Lead Knee is located, and he separates golfers into into 3 categories — Lower Core, Mid Core, and/or Upper Core swingers.
Dr. Wright describes each of these regions, and illustrates PGA TOUR examples such as Jordan Spieth, Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and more. He shows how you can test for, and identify your Core Region, and how to focus on a few (personal) crucial set-up and address elements to guarantee better balance that is sure to optimize your golf swing for peak performance.
