David Leadbetter (born 27 June 1952) is a leading golf instructor, originally from Worthing in England. He began his career on the European and Southern African tours, but had little success as a player. Having an interest in the techniques, mechanics and psychology of the sport he soon moved into instruction and came to wide notice in the 1980s when he rebuilt the swing of Nick Faldo, who then went on to win six major championships.

A Lesson with David Leadbetter and Ben Hogan

illiam Ben Hogan (August 13, 1912 – July 25, 1997) was an American professional golfer, generally considered one of the greatest players in the history of the game. Born within six months of two other acknowledged golf greats of the twentieth century, Sam Snead and Byron Nelson, Hogan is notable for his profound influence on the golf swing theory and his legendary ball-striking ability, for which he remains renowned among players and fans.

His nine career professional major championships tie him (with Gary Player) for fourth all-time, trailing only Jack Nicklaus , Tiger Woods and Walter Hagen. Furthermore, he is one of only five golfers to have won all four major championships currently open to professionals (the Masters Tournament, the British Open, the U.S. Open, and the PGA Championship), the other four being Gene Sarazen, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods.

Leadbetter now runs an international chain of golf academies headquartered at the ChampionsGate Golf Resort in Bradenton, Florida, U.S. which has 36 holes designed by Greg Norman. There are also branches elsewhere in North America and in Europe and Asia. Leadbetter himself concentrates on teaching tour professionals and on instructing other coaches in his methods, who then teach his ideas at his academies. Apart from Faldo his students include Nick Price, Charles Howell III, Michelle Wie, and many other well-known players on the leading tours. Pros who formerly worked with Leadbetter included: Nick Faldo (1984-1998), Greg Norman (1997), and Ernie Els (1990-2008). He was ranked second to Butch Harmon on the 2005-2006 edition of Golf Digest’s list of the “50 Greatest Teachers” in the United States.

This is where Leadbetter’s weakness shows with regard to Ben Hogan’s fundamentals-he clearly doesn’t understand the importance of the movements and how they fit together so tightly. The Hogan swing was essentially one motion from beginning to end, an accomplishment which no other golfer has been able to match! This is the true beauty of Ben Hogan’s fundamentals-pure synergy with absolutely no wasted movement! David Leadbetter is throwing a monkey wrench into Ben Hogan’s Fundamentals by adding pieces of his own swing theory that do not fit.

Let’s face it, Hogan was the best ball striker and had the best swing of all time. He may have been a little more flexible than most and he certainly worked harder than anyone else, but as I see it, he had two legs, a torso, two arms, and a head. The fundamentals he applied to his swing were proven in major championships and they can be applied to any golfer who possesses anything related to a typical human physique.

For a publisher wanting to sell the largest possible number of books, David Leadbetter was the obvious choice for a new book on Hogan. Combine the biggest name in golf instruction and the newly found photos used to create the illustrations in Ben Hogan’s book Five Lessons, The Modern Fundamentals Of Golf and you’re guaranteed to have a big seller. Unfortunately, focusing on dollars instead of being true to the subject doesn’t do justice to Ben Hogan’s fundamentals.
