Physical Screening for Golfers
Who is this assessment screen for?
Simply put, it is for golfers of all ages and abilities that are looking to improve their performance, shoot better scores and decrease their risk of injury. “If you don’t assess, it’s just a guess”. The TPI movement screen is a simple test to quickly evaluate a player’s physical capabilities. A proper screen involves an assessment of swing mechanics, biomechanics, physical fitness, movement quality, current health, and injury history. The results are used to determine what the body can or cannot do. Once this screen is finished, a customized plan including fitness training, physical therapy and treatment, coaching of swing mechanics and biomechanics, nutrition, mental strategy or all of the above is created.
What will I get from the assessment?
· Body movement analysis
· Identify injuries & limitations
· Customized training plan based on your results
· Improved performance and efficiency in your golf swing
Testimonials
"I just wanted to update you on my progress...my back is nearly back to 100% and golfing better than ever. I’m at least a min of 1/2 club longer than I’ve ever been with irons and approaches, causing some flown green adjustments to be made. Not the worst problem to have...
I recently shot my lowest score ever of 74, and last month won our club championship B level tournament at The Meadows. All good stuff!
Thanks for your help, it’s changed my game for the better.."

Testimonials
"I can’t believe what an instant change there was to my swing with only a slight tweak to the angle of my pelvis at address. It really freed me up and I saw immediate gains of 7 yards carry with my 7-iron and 14 yards carry with my 5-iron. I can’t wait to see what results can be achieved after a few months following the exercises you recommended."
G. Venman, December 2023.
"As a competitive amateur golfer, I needed to look beyond the latest, greatest equipment in order to improve...What sets Dr. Ikede apart is not only his medical expertise which arms him deep understanding of the intricate connection between the body and the golf swing, but he is also a great dude! The TPI assessment was a fun process. It clearly identified specific imbalances in my strength and movement patterns, revealing subtle nuances that were affecting my golf performance. I left with a comprehensive program designed to enhance my overall athleticism and, more importantly, fine-tune my golf-specific movements.
One of the most exciting promises of the TPI Golf Program is the potential improvement in my ball striking and distance off the tee."

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. TPI discovered how a properly functioning body allows a player to swing a club in the most efficient way possible, while also determining how physical limitations in a player’s body can affect the golf swing and lead to injury. This is what TPI calls The Body-Swing Connection and is the foundation of all professional Certification courses offered by TPI. (More details available at mytpi.com).
