Tiger Woods’ ex-coach calls out analyst for seemingly spreading misinformation about the 15x major champion’s swing changes

One golf analyst has a viral video on X claiming that Tiger Woods has made significant swing changes four times in his career. Woods’ former coach Hank Haney, who worked with Woods for much of his career, doesn’t believe that’s the case.

The analyst praised Woods for being “the best at making swing changes” and said four swing changes might be putting it lightly. He aimed to highlight how the golfer went about it and why he was so successful.

The only problem is, according to Haney, it never happened. He responded on X:

“I don’t remember this part.”

Ryan Mouque claimed that Woods was so successful in changing his swing, which is not an insignificant thing to do in golf, because he didn’t care what the ball did after the swing in the early stages.

According to Moque, Woods was hyper-focused on the swing itself and ignored the result during the transition period. Once the 15-time Major winner got the swing down, he would then start paying attention to what the ball did.

Mouque named Woods to highlight a technique that he recommends to his golfers. The technique may be sound, and it might be good advice. The only issue is that Woods’ former coach doesn’t believe it’s something Woods really did.

Changing a swing in golf is hard, especially for veterans who’ve made it to the PGA Tour like the 82-time champion did. To do it four or more times would be impressive, but it may not be true according to Woods’ ex-coach.

Tiger Woods praises controversial Bernhard Langer shot at PNC Championship

Bernhard Langer and his son Jason were victorious at the PNC Championship last weekend. They went into a playoff with Tiger Woods and Charlie Woods before winning on the second hole.

They made it to that playoff thanks in part to a controversial shot by Langer. The veteran golfer was able to make use of scramble rules to hit his ball off a little bit of a mound in the bunker. This allowed him to forego a wedge and instead use his driver.

This prompted some backlash, but Woods said later (via Golf.com):

“[It was] one of the best shots I’ve ever seen.”

In the playoff, Langer’s son went first on the second hole. He played a nice shot, but it didn’t go in. The result taught Langer what he needed to know to beat Tiger Woods on his putt attempt.

He said:

“When his ball was six feet from the hole, it was supposed to break a little left and it didn’t. It just stayed there. I was almost in shock that he didn’t make it because he hit such a pure putt. I was the beneficiary of seeing what his ball did. I played less break, and mine was able to bounce in there.”

Both teams finished -28 after the conclusion of the final round before having to go to extra holes.
