Golf Injury Certification Program

The Golf Injury Certification Program has been designed for the doctor who wants to establish and grow a referral relationship with the PGA instructors in their community. The PGA instructors are working with hundreds of golf students who are not physically fit or conditioned to play golf golf. It is difficult for instructors to teach golf to students who present for lessons with postural instability, structural weakness and poor flexibility. Before long, students become frustrated and perhaps injured.

“I’ve been teaching golf for more than 20 years. I can honestly say that lack of proper golf-specific fitness and conditioning has been responsible of over 50% of every poor golf swing.”

-Gary G. Setting, PGA, Northern Chapter, SCPGA
2005 Golf Professional of the Year
