1980: Tom Watson wins the Greater New Orleans Open over Lee Trevino Red Hot Tom Watson adds another win to the list On this day, In 1980 Tom Watson won the Greater New Orleans Open by skidding to the finish line. He started the even with three crisp rounds of 66, 68, & 66. He looked to be on track to run away with it but pressure set in, and it was a battle for Watson to hold on to this one. He ended up shooting a final round, 73 for a total of 273 over the 7,080 yard Lakewood Country Club layout. Lee Trevino, who shot a closing round of 69, was the closest to catching Watson. This was Watson’s 20th career win and his 4th of 7 wins on the PGA Tour in 1980 alone. He closed the 1980 season by winning The Open in July at Muirfield ironically beating Trevino again, then the World Series of Golf in August. Watson won 45,000 for this event and would go one to win The Player of the Year and Top Money Winner in 1980. #tomwatson #NO #NewOrleans #golf #1980 #lee #leetrevino #golf #scotland #oldtommorris #golfing #golfcourse #golfer #golflife #instagolf #golfclub #nikegolf #golfswing #golfers #taylormadegolf (at Lakewood Golf Club New Orleans)

American golf legend Jack Nicklaus became the third American to be named an honorary citizen of St Andrews at the 150th Open.

Nicklaus, an 18-time major champion, won the Open in St Andrews in 1970 and 1978. The recognition has deeply touched the 18-time major champion, who thought he had bade farewell to St Andrews at the 2005 Open.

Nicklaus thought he had bade his farewells to St Andrews during the 2005 Open.

Here are some of the best photos from the day, including this one of Rory McIlroy, Georgia Hall, Tiger Woods, Lee Trevino and Jack Nicklaus posing on the Swilcan Bridge.

Nicknamed the “Golden Bear”, he birdied the 18th hole at the Old Course in an emotional finale to his career.

The honorary doctorate that the town’s prestigious university to these golfers join an established roll of St Andrews’ honorary graduates which includes Arnold Palmer, Tom Watson, Seve Ballesteros, Peter Alliss, Sir Nick Faldo, Colin Montgomerie, Peter Thomson, Gary Player and Padraig Harrington.

Matthew Wolff Gets Top 25 Swing Analysis

While the PGA Tour is far more loaded with look-alike swings than it was even a decade ago, once in a while a truly unusual move will come into view. Latest case in point? The big-bashing, left-foot-raising, way-past-parallel swing of Oklahoma State phenom Matthew Wolff.

The newly minted PGA Tour pro tees it up at the Travelers at TPC River Highlands this week, so we asked Golf Tips’ Top 25 Instructors to analyze the young man’s homemade action, overseen by iconoclastic Southern California teaching guru George Gankas.

ALISON CURDT

The ball only knows impact, so what happens in the backswing can be deceiving. His unique move in the backswing sets up an awesome moment at impact allowing him to maximize distance and ensure accuracy. Fun to watch for sure!

BARRY GOLDSTEIN

Personally, I love it ... the only goal of the golf swing is to repeat under pressure so you can shoot good scores and win golf tournaments. When my daughter was playing for the LSU Tigers she had a teammate with a very funky swing who is a great player. I thought to myself, how many people probably tried to change that swing over the years, much like Jim Furyk. And I bet people with unique swings feel like they looks totally normal. I cringe when I hear teachers say a flying right elbow is a bad thing. Sure worked for Jack Nicklaus and Fred Couples. I like watching this kid’s golf swing — he hits it hard and straight. I hope he has a good week.

GAIL GRAHAM

His motion is “unorthodox” by the standards we, as instructors and coaches, follow — however, it is HIS. He gets back to impact with flair but his swing speed and the quality of his ball striking proves that a unique swing motion is not a bad thing — it just is his. 

#jimfuryk #leetrevino #bubbawatson 

BOB GRISSETT

Matthew Wolff has been successful at every level that he’s played. Throughout the history of golf we’ve seen many successful unique swings on the tour. Some that come to mind are Jim Furyk, Gay Brewer, Miller Barber, Calvin Pete, and Ed Furgol to name a few. All of these players one major championships and had very successful careers. 

One of the things that I like most about Matthew is his routine. I’m a big believer in the importance of having a consistent routine. He begins his swing the same way every time. It looks a bit nervous, but he is just breaking up any tension. It is unique and it works. I see nothing wrong with unique.

The goal in golf is to shoot the lowest score. The last time I looked the score board has no space to write how. It doesn’t reward you for pretty. In this game the rewards go to the players who shoot the lowest scores. 

Today’s game is also a power game, and there’s no question he has that to spare. I give his instructor George Gankas a lot of props for not trying to rebuild Matthew’s swing but rather work on enhancing pieces to match up with his natural motion. 

If Matthew has the career I expect, the big winner will be the game we all love. Great golfing, Matthew. All of us here with Golf Tips Magazine wish you nothing but the best! 

JOHN HUGHES

This is not the first unique swing we’ve seen on tour, and will definitely not be the last. Although unique, so long as impact repeats, what does it matter what the swing looks like?

According to Wolfe, the swing is homemade, made to get the club face to work for him each and every swing.  His set-up does the same, allows his unique capabilities to repeat, while staying in dynamic balance. And according to FlightScope, the numbers are as good if not better than most when it comes to a solid impact position.

Nothing wrong with unique, especially when it continues to advance your career and your increase your achievement list.  I hope he remains his own person, drowns out the noise of critics, and shows that nonconformity has its privileges.

TOM PATRI

Genius comes in many forms — Chi Chi, Gay Brewer, Arnie, Furyk, Daly, Bubba, Ho-Sung Choi, Azinger, Calvin Pete and Hubert Green, just to name a few. Keep in mind I just rattled off the winners of 15 majors, well over 100 victories and countless wheel barrows full of cash! 

Young Mr. Wolff, although still an unproven commodity as a professional, certainly thus far carries a resume’ that would imply there are promising times ahead. In this case, as in so many with his pedigree thus far, if he proves unsuccessful likely it won’t be because of his golf swing but one of the other major factors that effect a young player on the world stage.

TOM STICKNEY

First of all I cannot give George Gankas enough credit for NOT pushing this fine young player into a specific mold or swing model that many teachers have!  Of course we all have our thoughts on positioning that makes more sense for certain swing types, body types, practice times, and coordination levels, but when it comes to the scratch and better players you must work with what they have already done so successfully.  In my opinion Wolff has the mental freedom and full belief in what he is doing mechanically and that is the buy-in that any teacher needs to help a player at this level reach his full potential.

Certainly, George is helping him tighten a few things up, but in addition he is continuing to make Matthew believe he is moving in the right direction — and like Butch Harmon what only matters in instruction is what you do that makes the player play better — not what his swing looks like overall

TINA TOMBS

Unique, individual and successful!
