If I copy elements of Tiger Woods old golf swing, does it mean I will have knee problems in future?
I’m 14 years old and I have been playing golf for 3 years. This year I used elements of Tiger Woods swing and I found I was doing well with it. However Im worried now that in the future I will end up with knee problems. Should I change my swing to help my knee or leave it as it is?
do you plan to hit 1000 balls everyday? do you plan to be as strong as tiger is? probably not. he only has knee problems because of the massive amount of torque on his knees 1000s of times a week. so unless your going to get as big as him and play is much probably not.

copying someone elses swing is disaster. they didnt copy someones swing, it came naturally. so should yours. but if its helping i dont see a reason to change. just dont take his entire swing into yours. just keep it at elements of his swing. and its possible that you could but no guarantees on if you would get knee problems or not.

The snapping of knee as tiger does it is a classic anti hook move. It’s a move i use and many players on the tour use. I wouldn’t worry about the knee issues unless you plan to hit as many balls as tiger does, and can generate the force in your golf wing like tiger does which would result in stress on the knee. outside of tiger i can’t think of many players who’ve had knee issues by using this move.
