Ernie Els Golf Swing Analysis: Fix Your Turn & Impact

Published: March 2, 2026

Were you shocked to see The Big Easy win his second Open Championship? I sure was.

It's now clear that Ernie Els still has what it takes. He may not have picture perfect golf technique, but he does find ways to get into great impact positions.

Ernie's swing is a testament to what solid golf fundamentals and a great tempo can do for your golf game.

Have you been struggling with making a good shoulder turn?

You might be surprised to find out that your wrist cock could be the problem.

Learn what Ernie does to correct for this that most golfers don't. This could very well get you more rotation in your backswing. If you want to see how your own swing mechanics stack up, try the AI swing analyzer to instantly identify where your rotation is breaking down.

Do you sway off the ball, hit it thin, or take little or no divot at all?

If so, find out how you can give yourself a better chance at crisp, clean contact by fixing your stance width. Proper stance width is one of those fundamental setup keys that dramatically affects your ability to transfer weight correctly through the ball.

I have always been an Ernie Els fan. He is cool under pressure and never gives up. His ability to maintain swing tempo under tournament conditions is something every amateur golfer should study.
