My dads a scratch golfer and Ive got the knack of seeing something

My dads a scratch golfer and Ive got the knack of seeing something and then replicating it. I saw my dad swing a club and I worked out how to do the same thing. My backswing and follow-through have been basically the same since I was two. – Rory McIlroy
