Most golfers spend years working on their swing mechanics while overlooking the thing that actually drives the swing: their body.
Through the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI), we now know that many common swing faults are directly related to physical limitations such as:
- Reduced hip mobility
- Limited thoracic rotation
- Poor balance or stability
- Shoulder or ankle mobility restrictions
In many cases, golfers are trying to achieve positions their body physically cannot get into.
What Is a TPI Golf Assessment?
A TPI golf assessment is a golf-specific movement screen designed to evaluate how your body may be affecting your swing, performance, consistency, and injury risk.
The assessment looks at movement patterns commonly associated with golf swing limitations and helps identify where your body may be compensating.
Why It Matters
Golf places repetitive stress on the body, especially the low back, shoulders, hips, elbows, and wrists.
When mobility or stability is limited, the body often compensates during the swing. Over time, this can contribute to:
- Loss of power and club head speed
- Inconsistent ball striking
- Reduced efficiency
- Increased stress on joints and muscles
- Pain during or after playing golf
Addressing these limitations can often improve both performance and longevity in the game.

As a certified provider through the Titleist Performance Institute, Dr. Joe Myhren uses a system trusted throughout professional and amateur golf to evaluate how the body influences the swing.
This is not a general fitness assessment. It is designed specifically for golfers.
