A.I. Evaluated Golfers’ Form at the 2026 Golf Invitational Benefit and Chose the Top Five

Just for fun …

We asked ChatGPT to look through hundreds of action shots and identify the top five. It voluteered to evaluate the photos based on the following:

  • Posture and alignment — spine angle, balance, and athletic setup.

  • Grip and hand position — where visible.

  • Swing mechanics — backswing, rotation, and swing plane.

  • Weight transfer and balance — stability throughout the swing.

  • Follow-through — extension, finish, and control.

Enjoy the results!

Number One: Strongest overall

  • Good athletic posture and spine angle.

  • Solid lower-body foundation.

  • Shoulders and hips show appropriate rotation.

  • Club position at the top of the backswing is particularly good.

A strong photograph for illustrating swing mechanics.

Number Two

  • Good athletic setup and knee flex.

  • Visible torso rotation.

  • Arms and club are well positioned at the top.

  • Appears balanced through the swing transition.

One of the better examples of a controlled backswing.
