1 Chipping
Use less loft! A lot of amateurs go straight for the 60° when chipping. I watched Francesco Molinari winning the BMW PGA Championship last year and he actually used the putter a lot. Don’t be scared to use the putter just because you’ve missed the green.
2 Increasing power
Often when you try and swing harder you don’t hit the centre of the face. I’ve started working on my legs a little bit better to get more power from the ground. If you take Rory, for example, he really squats into it. He uses the ground a lot and shoots straight back up, which helps with clubhead speed. Use the ground force a little bit better to increase speed.
