What Nobody Tells You About Footwork in the Golf Swing | Paddy's Golf Tips #50 | Padraig Harrington

In this lesson, I discuss footwork in the golf swing. As well as using step drills, I explain how the feet need to be moving at address, how they work throughout the swing and the role of ground force. #PadraigHarrington #Golfing #golfskill SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE CONTENT: https://bit.ly/4gKoVme About Padraig Harrington: Born in Dublin Padraig is a proud family man married to Caroline with two children Patrick and Ciaran. As a three-time major champion, Padraig is one of the world’s top golfers and his playing record speaks for itself. Following a very successful amateur career, including winning the Walker Cup in 1995 at Royal Porthcawl in one of his three Walker Cup appearances, he turned professional in September 1995. Having won in only his 10th event as a professional, Padraig became European number one in 2006, before winning his national Open a year later. Winning 38 times as a professional, he captured three major championships in the space of 13 months, which helped him to reach a career high of 3rd in the World Rankings. More recently, he has secured nine tournaments on the PGA Champions Tour, including the 2022 Senior US Open, and was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2024. Beyond golf, Padraig is a proud family man, married to Caroline with two children and founded the Padraig Harrington Charitable Foundation to provide financial assistance to deserving beneficiaries.
