>>>Join the WSG Speed Challenge now!  What Is the 30-Day Speed Challenge? This isn’t just another quick-fix program — it’s a guided 30-day experience designed to help you swing faster, hit it longer, and build sustainable habits you can carry into next season. Program starts 10/14 and goes through 11/13! Over the course of one month, you’ll train smarter, track your progress, and learn the exact routines Michael uses in his own pursuit of more speed. Every golfer knows that 1 mph of swing speed equals 2–3 yards of distance. Add just 5 mph, and you’re suddenly hitting shorter approach shots, attacking more pins, and giving yourself more birdie chances. The best part? You can improve your speed at any age with the right work ethic.
