Interlocking Grip: Method of holding the club by wedging or locking the right pinky finger between the left index and middle fingers. Neutral: Position in which the hands are directly aligned with the clubface. The golfer with a neutral grip can typically see two full knuckles on the back of the left hand when addressing the ball.
The golfer with a weak grip can typically see one full knuckle on the back of the left hand when addressing the ball. The golfer with a strong grip can typically see more than two full knuckles on the back of the left hand when addressing the ball. Reverse Overlap Putting Grip: Conventional putting grip style with the left hand above the right and the left index finger extending downward, on top of the fingers of the right hand. Best Grip? Overlapping vs Interlocking.
Grip style: Interlocking. Combined, those two forces push the shaft toward the target. This grip resulted in a swing in which the club was across the line at the top of the backswing with a closed clubface. It was an immensely powerful move, but one Tiger himself said he struggled to repeat, leading to his first major swing change.
When Tiger began working with Hank Haney in , hitting a controlled fade became his priority. His swing got more laid-off and he altered his release through the ball, but before any of that, he weakened his left hand grip even more. Going from a strong to neutral position under Harmon, his left hand was now on the slightly weaker side of the spectrum. Tiger and Foley joined forces in , and Tiger pursued a new move that prioritized staying centered for longer over the ball on the backswing, and creating more shaft lean at impact.
His right hand looked a touch stronger, too. Today, Tiger has seemed to settle on a very neutral grip that works for him. Both hands look ever-so-slightly weaker than in previous years.
