Golf Digest South Africa - June 2026

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX TO GET SET AT THE TOP This might sound a bit cheesy (da dum dum), but the way you carry pizza boxes can help you get in a great position at the top of your swing. Notice how I’m holding them ( left ). To balance them, my right arm and wrist are bent nearly 90-degrees. These positions mimic the orientation of that arm (for righties) at the top of the swing. Practice it with this drill: Grip a club in your right hand. Now get into that pizza-box position with that arm, and rotate your upper body as if you’re making a backswing. When you complete your turn, put your other hand on the club like I am here (below). Now you’re set at the top.
