[Asia Economy Reporter Nowrae Noh] "How to quickly warm up your body in real play."


This is the know-how of the 'old golf emperor' Jack Nicklaus (USA). It is useful information for amateur golfers to know before winter rounds. Nicklaus is a player who has won a total of 73 PGA Tour victories, including a record 18 major wins. He collected four different major championship trophies: the 1962 US Open, the 1963 Masters and PGA Championship, and the 1966 The Open, becoming the fourth 'Career Grand Slammer' at the young age of 26.


Recently, Golf.com in the US revealed three 'warming-up secrets' of Nicklaus, who just celebrated his 80th birthday. Nicklaus's simple routine can be very effective even if you invest just a few minutes. The first step is Swing Loosely. It is easy to follow. A swing without rotation tension relaxes the muscles. Nicklaus said, "When I arrive at the golf course, I take light swings," adding, "It makes a tight body flexible."



The second step is Rotate Your Back. Warm up quickly like lightning. A survey found that one-third of amateur players complain of back pain. It is essential to prevent back injuries. The last step is Lightly Swing a Pitching Wedge. At the driving range, he also starts with a wedge, not a driver. He emphasized, "This is the secret to preventing injuries and playing golf for a long time."
