SANTA ANA, CA – July 30, 2009 – GolfGym and Coach Joey D offer congratulations to Jason Dufner on his T3 finish at the RBC Canadian Open. He is one of several Tour Players who have made a commitment to improving their games by working with Coach Joey D, one of the elite biomechanics, strength and conditioning coaches on the PGA Tour using GolfGym training products every day as part of their golf fitness programs.
“I couldn’t be more proud of the run Jason has had this year,” said Coach Joey D. “He’s a student of the game and his swing is so Sam Snead-esque right now, it’s scary. The ability has always been there. He’s married that with a quiet confidence as well as a full on commitment to getting his body right. Because he’s no longer chasing his Tour card, I believe we’ll see some amazing things out of him down the stretch this season.”
Dufner shot a 14-under 274 to earn $295,800 and secure his T3 position and his fifth top ten finish this year. His finish moved him from 47th to 36th in FedEx Cup Point standings this week.
“Congratulations to Jason on another incredible week at the RBC Canadian Open,” said Ken Pierce, President of GolfGym. “He was in the hunt all week, shooting a second round 63. He’s been playing very well this year and I think we can expect great things from him through the remainder of the season.”
