Titleist Performance Institute
What is TPI?
TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) is the world's leading educational organization dedicated to the study of how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. Greg White is one of the only TPI Level 3 Golf and Power certified teachers in Michigan.
The Body-Swing Connection
Two decades of data. One proven methodology.
For over twenty years, TPI has gathered the world's largest technical database of the game's top Tour professionals as well as every-day golfers. TPI collects 3D motion capture, force, pressure, launch monitor, strength, power, and movement data on every player that visits the TPI campus.
Using this data, TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a golf club in the most efficient way possible. Conversely, physical limitations can adversely affect the golf swing and potentially lead to injury. This relationship is what TPI calls The Body-Swing Connection.
TPI's Mission
TPI's mission is to educate golfers and industry professionals on the Body-Swing Connection through its one of a kind TPI Certified educational program.
TPI's Philosophy
TPI believes that golfers should match their swing style to their movement capabilities.
"There are an infinite number of ways to swing a golf club. However, there is one most-efficient way for each player to swing a club and it is based on what they can physically do."
"If you don't assess, it's just a guess!"

The Assessment Screen
Screen first. Train with purpose.
To achieve an efficient swing, a golfer must first be screened. A proper screen involves an assessment of swing mechanics, biomechanics, physical fitness, movement quality, current health, and injury history.
The TPI movement screen is a simple test to quickly evaluate a player's physical capabilities. Once the screen is finished, the results are used to create a plan unique for that golfer — including fitness training, physical therapy, coaching, nutrition, mental strategy, or all of the above.
