The Coaching Seminar recently introduced by ETPI, organised by the PGA European Tour, is becoming an absolutely essential date in the calendar for trade visitors. The ETPI replies to questions raised by golfers; these responses will refer to collated and evaluated scientific data about the human body, driving, and the flight of the ball. This multi-disciplinary approach, which European Tour players already apply, guarantees that the best possible individual bespoke development programmes are provided.
