Golfers told: prevent injury — and improve swing

MEDICS are now shouting ‘fore!’ to golfers, urging them to protect their arms and shoulders before they suffer any injuries.

They are stressing that physiotherapy and assessment before an injury occurs can not only prevent harm, but can help golfers improve their swing and play a better game.

Today, just days before the Ryder Cup gets under way, more than 100 medical experts will attend a major meeting on sports and exercise at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI) in Dublin.
