How to Golf Like Vijay Singh

Vijay Singh plays in the shadows of some of the other more flashy golfers, despite being a highly ranked player for most of his career. This is because Vijay just plays with sound fundamentals and prefers to work on his game instead of doing interviews or commercials. Any golfer can implement these core aspects of Vijay's into his own game.

Instructions

Difficulty: Challenging

1. Bounce back from adversity. While playing golf on the Asian tour at age 22, officials banned Vijay from the game for two years after accusations of cheating arose, although no damning evidence ever surfaced. He eventually found a place on the African tour once the ban was over and fought his way back to become one of the best golfers in the world.
2. Practice often. Vijay Singh is celebrated for his long, arduous practice routines. Even when he is playing in a tournament and most players are resting, you will see Vijay practicing for three or four hours before and after each round of play.
3. Develop a tapered downswing. The basis of Vijay's golf swing is that he swings close to his left shoulder with a broad follow through. This contributes his signature, controlled detonation to his golf swing.
4. Be happy to hit one good golf shot at a time. Vijay does not take the game for granted. He approaches every practice or tourney swing with a simple love for the game and exults in just hitting good golf shots.
