Amateur Golfer’s Insights Shape Future of Professional Golf

Kinematic analysis of the golf swing has been extensively examined in literature, providing insights into the mechanics and efficiency of the motion. This comprehensive review synthesizes the current understanding of golf swing kinematics. The paper categorizes and discusses key variables, including swing plane, clubhead velocity, body segment motion, and temporal sequencing. The review evaluates the impact of swing plane variations, the role of body segments in generating power, and the importance of timing and sequencing in optimizing performance. Additionally, it explores the use of technology, such as motion capture systems and biomechanical modeling, in advancing our understanding of golf swing kinematics. This review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, coaches, and golfers seeking to enhance their understanding and performance in the sport.
