VALUE OF THE WGTF AS A GLOBAL NETWORK
WGTF作为全球网络的价值

As the world becomes more interconnected, it only seems natural that global alliances offer benefits in many ways. One of those global alliances is the World Golf Teachers Federation. Founded in the early 1990s, it was ahead of its time, especially in the golf industry.

随着世界变得越来越互联互通,全球联盟在许多方面提供了许多好处,其中之一便是世界高尔夫球教练联合会(World Golf Teachers Federation,WGTF)。成立于上世纪90年代初,WGTF 在高尔夫球行业处于领先地位,是当时颇具先见之明的。

Today, the WGTF offers a global alliance where different, individual federations come under the auspices of one umbrella. This has the benefit of providing a consistent standard of training and giving credibility to each federation. This diverse network of individual federations proves the old saying, “strength in numbers.” Each federation has something to offer that will benefit other federations, and with the WGTF, it is possible to quickly incorporate these benefits. This further serves to strengthen all federations together in a synergistic manner. Moving ahead into the 21st century, the WGTF will undoubtedly play a greater role in shaping the future of teaching the game of golf.

如今,WGTF 提供了一个全球联盟,不同的个体协会来自于同一个组织下。这样做的好处在于提供了一致的培训标准,并为每个联合会提供了可信度。这个由不同联合会组成的多样化网络证明了古话“众人拾柴火焰高”的真理。每个联合会都有自己的特长,这些特长可以带来其他联合会的好处,而有了WGTF,就可以快速整合这些好处。这进一步以协同的方式加强了所有联合会的实力。走向21世纪,WGTF 毫无疑问将在塑造高尔夫球教学未来方面扮演更重要的角色。

SOUTHEAST DIRECTOR WINS PROFESSIONAL HICKORY CHAMPIONSHIP
东南地区总监获得专业古柏高尔夫锦标赛冠军

Mark Harman from Ridgeland, SC, and newly appointed director of the Southeast Region of the USGTF, shot a 76 to win the U.S. Professional Hickory Golf Championship at the 100-year-old Temple Terrace Golf & Country Club outside of Tampa, Florida, on February 20. Harman is the first USGTF professional to win the event in its 13-year history.
Mark Harman来自南卡罗来纳州里奇兰(Ridgeland),是美国高尔夫球职业教练协会(USGTF)东南地区的新任总监。2月20日,他在佛罗里达州坦帕市郊外的一百年历史的坦普特瑞斯高尔夫乡村俱乐部击败对手,以76杆夺得了美国专业古柏高尔夫锦标赛冠军。Harman是USGTF协会历史上第一位获得该项赛事冠军的职业选手。

Asked to comment, retired Southeast director and tournament chairman Mike Stevens said, “It’s great to see a fellow member of the organization break through and win the event. As for the tournament, it would have never come to fruition if not for the support of former president of the USGTF, Geoff Bryant. Geoff always believed that it was important for golf professionals to remember the roots of the game and pass its history on to peers and students alike. The USGTF title sponsorship of the tournament for several years while he was president allowed me to build it into what it is today. For that, I will always be grateful to him. Hope to see more of our members participate in the future.”
退休的东南地区总监和比赛主席Mike Stevens被问及评论时说:“看到协会的一位会员突破重围赢得比赛真是太好了。至于比赛本身,如果不是USGTF的前任主席Geoff Bryant的支持,它就不可能实现。Geoff一直认为让高尔夫职业教练记住游戏的根源,并向同行和学生传授其历史非常重要。在他担任主席期间,USGTF几年来的赞助让我能够将比赛建设成今天的样子。为此,我将永远感激他。希望未来能看到更多我们的会员参与其中。”

The tournament celebrates the Florida Open, a hickory event played at this venue in 1925, and the winner has his name affixed to the John Shippen Cup, named after America’s first golf professional. The cup resides permanently in the Temple Terrace clubhouse. Next year’s event is scheduled for Monday, February 19, 2024.
这项比赛庆祝了1925年在这个场地上举行的佛罗里达公开赛,这是一项沙漠核桃木球赛事,并且胜利者的名字会被刻在约翰•希彭杯上,这个杯子以美国第一位高尔夫职业球手约翰•希彭的名字命名。这个杯子永久驻留在坦普尔露台俱乐部。明年的比赛定于2024年2月19日星期一举行。

“PRO” FILE – TOURING PROFESSIONAL SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER
职业档案 – 斯科蒂•谢夫勒

Perhaps the most distinctive thing about Scottie Scheffler is the “Scheffler Shuffle,” where his back foot moves considerably after contact, almost like he’s dancing. In years past it would have been considered a bad flaw, but today, where ball flight consistency reigns supreme among instructors, it’s no big deal.
斯科蒂•谢夫勒最独特的特点可能就是他的“谢夫勒舞步”,即在接触球之后,他的后脚移动相当大,几乎像跳舞一样。在过去的几年中,这可能被认为是一个严重的缺陷,但如今,对于教练来说,球的飞行一致性是最重要的,因此这并不是什么大问题。
Scheffler notched his fifth victory of his PGA Tour career when he won the Waste Management Open, known more for its rowdy behavior on the 16th and 17th holes than the golf itself. Like the Scheffler Shuffle, this would have been considered a bad “flaw” back in the day, too, so maybe it’s fitting that Scheffler finds success at the WM as he has now won the event two years in a row.
谢夫勒在赢得浪费管理公开赛(Waste Management Open)时,赢得了他职业生涯的第五个胜利,这个比赛因第16和第17洞上的喧哗行为而闻名,而不是因为比赛本身。就像谢夫勒舞步一样,在过去,这也可能被认为是一个严重的“缺陷”,因此,谢夫勒在WM赛事中取得成功,现在连续两年赢得了该赛事,这也许很合适。
Scheffler is one of the best ballstrikers on tour, ranking 3rd in strokes-gained off the tee and 14th in strokes-gained approach shots. He is a pedestrian putter, ranked 93rd, but analytics has shown us that ballstriking prowess is more important than putting prowess for success on the tour.
谢夫勒是巡回赛上最好的球员之一,在开球方面排名第三,在进攻击球方面排名第14。他的推杆技巧一般,排名第93位,但分析表明,在巡回赛上,球员的击球技巧比推杆技巧更重要。

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT – EDDIE KAUFMAN
学生聚焦——埃迪•考夫曼

By Scottie McAlarney, USGTF Certified, Torrance, CA
作者:Scottie McAlarney,美国高尔夫职业教练,托朗斯,加利福尼亚州

Eddie Kaufman from Throop, Pennsylvania, has been a golf student of mine at my “A Swing for Life” golf academy since the age of eight years old and has just finished his Mid Valley High School golf career this past fall in October of 2022. I have also had the privilege of serving as Eddie’s head coach on the golf team, where he earned the Scranton Times All-Regional “Player of the Year” award, recognizing the best player in the northeast part of the state.

来自宾夕法尼亚州特鲁普的埃迪•考夫曼自8岁起成为我的“A Swing for Life”高尔夫学院的学生,直到2022年秋天结束了他在中谷高中的高尔夫生涯。我还有幸担任埃迪的高尔夫队主教练,在那里他赢得了Scranton Times全区“年度最佳球员”奖,该奖项表彰该州东北部最优秀的球员。

Since his early years as a student of mine, he consistently showed progress each and every year from the junior ranks to playing high-level tournament golf. He has never been afraid to make changes to his swing when needed, including a significant one we had worked on right before a major high school championship event that had him finishing with a 5-under par 67 and earning him “athlete of the week” honors in our area.
自他早年成为我的学生以来,他每年都在青少年组到高水平锦标赛中取得了进步。他从未害怕在必要时改变他的挥杆,其中一个重要的改变是在高中重要锦标赛前我们一起训练,结果他以5杆低于标准杆67杆完成比赛,并赢得了我们地区的“本周最佳运动员”荣誉。
I have had numerous junior players in my 27-year career, including my son, who still plays in professional events, but no one has done what Eddie has been able to accomplish during his 10-year time frame with me as my student. Eddie will be going on to play golf for Roanoke University in Virginia. Academically, Eddie has a 3.9 GPA, is a member of the National Honor Society, and has achieved many other academic awards.

在我27年的职业生涯中,我培训过很多青少年球员,包括我儿子,他仍在职业赛事中打球,但在我指导下学习10年的埃迪所取得的成就,是没有其他人能够比拟的。埃迪将去弗吉尼亚的罗阿诺克大学打高尔夫球。在学术方面,埃迪有3.9的GPA,是全国荣誉学会的成员,并取得了许多其他学术奖励。

EDITORIAL – TIGER WOODS – WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD?
编辑 – 老虎伍兹 – 未来将会怎样?

Tiger Woods returned to official tournament competition this past February after a 7-month absence, and his return was typical Tiger since his car accident two years ago. He made the cut and then shot a stellar 67 on Saturday before a pedestrian 73 on Sunday.
泰格•伍兹在两年前的车祸之后,今年二月份重返正式锦标赛比赛。他在比赛中通过预赛并在周六打出出色的67杆后,在周日打出了平庸的73杆。

Tiger says he only plays if he believes he has a chance to win, but his performance highlights a dilemma that no one has really talked about: Tiger needs reps to contend, but is playing so rarely due to his physical condition that he cannot get the reps he needs to contend. Now, before anyone says in years past that Tiger played well the first time out after an extended layoff – which would be correct – Tiger is no longer young. From personal experience, I can tell you the older you get, the more you need the reps. And no, I’m not comparing myself to Tiger in terms of skill, but I’m not the only one who has gotten older who has made this observation.
伍兹表示他只会在认为自己有机会获胜时才会参赛,但他的表现突显出一个问题,这个问题似乎没有人谈论:伍兹需要大量练习才能竞争,但由于身体状况不佳,他很少参赛,因此他无法得到他需要的练习。现在,如果有人说在过去的几年里伍兹在长时间休赛后表现不错,那是正确的。但是,伍兹不再年轻。从个人经验来看,我可以告诉你,年龄越大,你就需要越多的练习。我并不是在技术上与泰格•伍兹做比较,但我不是唯一一个年龄增长后有过这种观察的人。

So now the question is, will Tiger make an effort to play more in order to be sharp for the majors? Because if he doesn’t, or his body doesn’t let him, then to make the climb to the top of the mountain one more time may not be possible. Yes, even for Tiger Woods, who has, since 1997, made the seemingly impossible happen.
因此,现在的问题是,伍兹会努力参加更多比赛以便为大满贯赛事做好准备吗?因为如果他不这样做,或者他的身体不允许他这样做,那么再次登顶就不可能了。是的,即使对于泰格•伍兹这样的选手,1997年以来一直让看似不可能的事情正在有可能变为现实。
