  • Advice From a Regular Golfer

    Regular golfers reveal the best piece of golf advice they’ve ever received We can’t help it. Recreational golfers, we love the game, and we’re unapologetically hooked on it. We’re also always trying to get better, which means we’re constantly on the hunt for a new tip that could prove the breakthrough for our games. There’s a ton of great information floating around out; the key is finding the piece of golf swing advice that works for you. So, we asked the members of our How To Hit Every Shot Instruction group (which we invite you to join, too) a straightforward question: What’s the best piece of swing advice you’ve ever received? They came back with a host of simple pieces of advice that helped them the most — and could help you, too. 1. Stay in rhythm Tempo is universal. But good tempo isn’t. Keeping a smooth rhythm in your golf swing can cover for a lot of sins, and it’s something golfers of every skill level can aspire to. 2. Grip it and rip it Ah, yes, the John Daly approach. I respect it. 3. You’ll never see a good shot (aka, don’t look up) Keeping your head down is probably the most common piece of swing advice ever — but don’t tell our Top 100 Teachers, who think it’s the worst piece of advice for golfers to follow. 4. When it’s breezy, swing easy LPGA Tour player Anne van Dam says this is her favorite piece of advice, too 5. Swing the golf club like a mallet I hadn’t heard this one before, but it’s probably a better way to hit down on the ball than keeping your head down. 6. Speed is more important than line in putting This is especially important when lag putting, which is why it’s one of Jason Day’s putting keys. 7. Elbow and arms moving close to your body Not all teachers like this piece of advice, but it’s Ben Hogan-approved. 8. Stop thinking too much A universally helpful piece of advice here. 9. Don’t listen to random swing advice This is also very helpful advice. 10. Hit the little ball before the big ball A.k.a., hit the golf ball before the earth. If you’re hitting the big ball too early, you’ll struggle with fat shots. 11. Reverse K setup So many golfers don’t set up to the golf ball with enough tilt, which can influence your swing path and cause a slice. 12. Don’t sway; rotate This is a big one that most golfers need to learn at some point during their journey. You want to move a little side-to-side on the backswing, but not too much. 13. Swing with your feet together Legendary coach Pete Cowen thinks 90 percent of golfers should swing this way. 14. It all starts with the correct grip Preach! 15. Swing for right field Lots of golfers start the game by coming over the top. Swinging for right field helps groove an in-to-out motion. 16. You only get one fast, and it shouldn’t be your backswing. Low and slow. Low and slow is another of golf’s most time-tested tips.

  • The Canadian Open

    Canadian Open Tournament As a national open, and especially as the most accessible non-U.S. national open for American golfers, the event had a special status in the era before the professional tour system became dominant in golf. In the interwar years, it was sometimes considered the third most prestigious tournament in the sport, after The Open Championship and the U.S. Open. This previous status was noted in the media in 2000, when Tiger Woods became the first man to win The Triple Crown (all three Opens in the same season) in 29 years, since Lee Trevino in 1971. In the decades preceding the tournament's move to an undesirable September date in 1988, the Canadian Open was often unofficially referred to as the fifth major. The top three golfers on the PGA Tour Canada Order of Merit prior to the tournament are given entry into the Canadian Open. However, prize money won at the Canadian Open does not count towards the Canadian Tour money list. Celebrated winners include Hall of Fame members Leo Diegel, Walter Hagen, Tommy Armour, Harry Cooper, Lawson Little, Sam Snead, Craig Wood, Byron Nelson, Doug Ford, Bobby Locke, Bob Charles, Arnold Palmer, Kel Nagle, Billy Casper, Gene Littler, Lee Trevino, Curtis Strange, Greg Norman, Nick Price, Vijay Singh, Mark O'Meara, and Tiger Woods. The Canadian Open is regarded as the most prestigious tournament never won by Jack Nicklaus, a seven-time runner-up. Diegel has the most titles, with four in the 1920s. In the early 2000s, the tournament was still being held in early September. Seeking to change back to a more desirable summer date in the schedule, the RCGA lobbied for a better date. When the PGA Tour's schedule was revamped to accommodate the FedEx Cup in 2007, the Canadian Open was rescheduled for late July, sandwiched between three events with even higher profiles (The Open Championship the week prior, the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational the week after, and the PGA Championship the week after that). The tournament counts towards the FedEx Cup standings, and earns the winner a Masters invitation. In 2019, due to a re-alignment of the PGA Tour and major scheduling, the Canadian Open moved to early-June prior to the U.S. Open. The event was also added to the Open Qualifying Series, allowing up to three of the top-ten finishers to qualify for the Open Championship. The 2020 event, originally scheduled for June 11 to 14 at St. George's Golf and Country Club in Toronto, was cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. On March 9, 2021, Golf Canada announced that the 2021 tournament would be cancelled as well.
