In terms of golf think of the TPI as the world’s largest education establishment built for the education and development of the game of golf as a sport.
The two connections between how the human body swings a golf club
and the effect of how the club face hits the ball at impact is the
reason the TPI exists. It provides education and development of how the human
body functions in relation to the mechanics and biological elements of the Golf-Swing.
Pretty impressive for a leading Golf Brand to take such a step but there’s
more!
The TPI is for All Golfers
Think of the TPI as an academy dedicated purely to helping ALL golf players
excel and you'll begin to understand its importance. It’s a new venture, so to
speak, having been created in 2003, and you make ask why so late? Well it takes
time to organize all of the educational and development tools that golfers can
access. From leading tour players to weekend players with high handicaps the
TPI welcomes all.
Over the course of the years the TPI has collated thousands of pieces of data from all
types of golf players and uses this to form the analysis that each and every golf swing is
different. Think of being able to see how swinging a golf club the correct way
is also the most efficient!
The Titleist Performance Institute Certified Program
But it isn’t just a members club. The TPI have produced a TPI certified
program that recognizes the importance of education in golf. Think of it as a
quality standard.
There are currently 6 fields of golf that organizations can gain recognition
in:
- Golf Coaching
- Golf Mechanics
- Medical
- Fitness
- Power
- Junior Development
The Global Spread of the TPI
Although originating in the USA the Titleist Professional Institute
stretched all around the globe, encompassing all countries that have or want to
have an interest in golf.
With over 9000 Titleist Professional Institute
Certified professional in 57 countries locating a TPI professional is very
easy.
The TPI is really a condensed sports database that leads the industry in
educating players through tips, analysis, biological and body structure, and
speed golf drills all helping to improve in golf the grandest game of all.
The Philosophy of the Titleist Professional Institute
Essential understanding and education of how the body moves and its relation
to the golf swing. This I totally agree with, and have had many great lessons
focusing on the natural pendulums found in my natural bone structure.
Why is Health Important in Golf?
The importance of health and well-being is a key point of the Titleist
Professional Institute. This again makes sense a healthy body equals a healthy
mind, more receptive to learning and absorbing and better able to deal with the
physical challenges of golf.
Efficiency is the key underlying the TPI’s philosophy of golf mechanics and
the uniqueness of each golfer.
The Uniqueness of Each Golf Swing
The TPI understand that each player is different therefore an assessment of
each golfer focuses on swing mechanics and biomechanics. Each golfer, whether
professional, amateur, or a public golfer will have their overall physical
fitness assessed. In addition TPI also monitor movement quality as each golfer
has different physical challenges and conditions that will affect their game of
golf. Health history is also considered an important aspect of why health
affects golf so much.
Bespoke Assessment of A Golf Swing
This bespoke assessment then allows an individual to have a plan that
focuses solely on their abilities. So many times I have seen coaches pass on
information to someone who just isn’t in the same shape as say Tiger Woods as
an extreme sample. You can’t play golf or learn how to hit the golf ball like
Tiger as you’re not Tiger in both physical and mental terms!
