I love how loose young Tiger’s swing used to look. Tempo is buttery smooth. pic.twitter.com/vOiM0lr6Em

Game improvement editor Luke Kerr Dineen recently posted a video of teen Tiger swinging his club in a ‘loose’ fashion on his Twitter handle. Luke mentions how he finds the tempo of the swing, “Buttery Smooth”.
The fans have been in awe since the video has been posted on Twitter. Here are some of their reactions –
For everyone saying it’s going way right. The camera is clearly not down the line. You can tell by the tee markers, tee boxes and how is feet are aimed. The camera has to be pretty much at a 45 degree angle to the right of his target line.

Definitely hitting a push draw here, but I've totally given up trying to determine just how far right the ball is starting on videos like this.
The camera being far back+slightly off-set to the right of hit target line exaggerates it a lot

This is sweet. Looked very similar to his swing when he got his ace at phx open early in his career before he started getting jacked…found it, link below. Looks nice and smooth as well. https://t.co/Qpa8wyUCzV
