Tiger’s Swing Evolution Throughout The Years (GIF)

This is pretty interesting, and also ridiculously mesmerizing. Tiger’s golf swing — one thought to be the prettiest of all time by some — is shown here throughout the years, side-by-side, starting from the age of three and going all the way to present day.

The first thing that jumps out to me is that I could outdrive ’78 Tiger in a big, big way. The next thing is how violently he whips his upper body and hips around in the ’94 and ’97 images. That’s a powerful, quick stroke, isn’t it? Older, more mature Tiger appears to take a much more methodical and relaxed cut. Of course, he’s changed swing coaches a couple times throughout his career, and that obviously has a lot to do with the transformation you see here.

Old Tiger used to swing like he was banging so many broads.

    The club and circumstances are different in every shot. He’s hitting tee shots in 78, 94, and 97, what looks to be an approach in 00 and wedges in 04 and 13. Interesting nonetheless.
