Injuries are an unfortunate part of golf. The research is out, and the rates of injury are staggering. It has been found that over 50% of recreational golfers will suffer some sort of chronic injury from golf in their lifetimes. The percentage is even higher at the professional level, despite “perfect technique” and expert preparation. Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) has stated that over 90% of tour pros have suffered a severe injury in their career, and over 50% each year will have an injury that sidelines them for an average period of 3-4 weeks.

However, for most of you reading this, there was probably a time over the past 6 months where you wished you had a few more minutes for yourself. Whether it was to relax, read, exercise or something else, we can all say that we have wished for some extra time to break away from our hectic, nonstop daily routines. The global COVID-19 pandemic that surrounds us has afforded us that extra time that we desired. Although it is a very unfortunate circumstance and our daily routines have been grossly disrupted, now is the time to make the most of this quarantine.
