That's what golf pros were teaching back in the 1950s and '60s. The classic swing--big and full, finishing in a perfect "reverse C." Unfortunately, that same classic swing can put your average 50-year-old in the hospital. Top tour players like Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Tom Kite and Fuzzy Zoeller, to name a few, have at one time or another each been sidelined with career-threatening back injuries. Today even younger players like Fred Couples, Peter Jacobsen and Tiger Woods have closeted that backbreaking motion, along with their steel-shafted drivers, in favor of the gentle power...

The future of senior tennis looks just as bright, with crowd pleasers such...
Leonard is also part of the Texas golf tradition handed down from Byron Nelson and Ben Hogan to Jimmy Demaret to Lee Trevino to Kite and Ben Crenshaw. Growing up in Dallas, Justin was so golf-mad that he wrote school papers on Nicklaus, Player and Palmer and practiced his short game inside the house. He recalled one hole as "up the stairs, around the dining room table and over the dog." The enormity of his desire was somewhat mitigated by his small stature, but Leonard delighted in beating opponents who far outdrove him. Because Leonard rarely loses his composure...
