Xander Shauffele: Using Pelvis Lift for Ground Force

 Let’s look back at the 2024 Champion, Xander Schauffele, to see what it took to win: 

Launching with Ground Force

Xander’s pelvis lift into impact is one of the highest on tour—at 3.4”, he’s well above the 2.9” tour average. This upward motion helps launch the ball high and far, especially with the driver.

Unreal Rotation
At impact, Xander gets his pelvis and chest more open than most:

• Pelvis Turn: 44° (vs. 37.5° tour avg)
• Chest Turn: 38° (vs. 30° tour avg)

Side bend + Sway Gap = serious separation.
To really drive the ball high, Xander creates a deep side bend and major horizontal separation:

• Chest Side Bend: 43° (vs. 32° avg)
• Sway Gap: -9.6” (vs. -6.7” avg)
