Scottie Scheffler Rotational Golf Mobility

Prepare your body for fluid rotational movement with Scottie Scheffler's morning routine for golf mobility. This sequence mobilizes the thoracic spine, hips, and core to build smooth rotational power.

5 time blocks, 25 minutes in total.

Time blocks

Foam Roll and Soft Tissue Release: 5 min
Roll glutes, thoracic spine, and lats to reduce muscle stiffness
Thoracic Spine Open Book Rotations: 5 min
Lie on your side and open the top arm to build upper back rotation
90/90 Hip Mobility Drops: 5 min
Sit with legs in 90 degree angles and rotate knees side to side
Glute Bridge and Lateral Band Walks: 5 min
Bridge hips and step side to side with a mini band above knees
Rotational Band Chops and Foot Drives: 5 min
Anchor a band and rotate through hips and torso with full pivot

About this routine

Scottie Scheffler's morning routine relies heavily on thoracic spine freedom and hip mobility to power his signature dynamic swing. Working alongside sports chiropractor Dr. Troy Van Biezen, Scheffler prioritizes joint health and rotational range of motion over lifting heavy weights before rounds.

The sequence targets key physical bottlenecks that limit rotational speed in golf. By pairing upper back thoracic rotations with 90/90 hip openers, you clear room for full shoulder turn and hip clearing without placing strain on the lower back.

Finish the session with band-resisted torso rotations and lateral glute work. This prepares your hips and core to transfer force efficiently through impact while maintaining balance across your lower body.

Why this routine works

Increases thoracic spine rotation for fuller shoulder turns
Improves hip internal and external rotation range
Engages glutes and core to protect the lower back during swing movement
