The aim of this study was to examine whether there is a relationship between ball speed when hit with a driver and the muscle power of the lower limbs and trunk in a group<br \/>in 8 golfers (16.8 \u00b1 1.4 years, 2.2 \u00b1 1.8 Handicap; 63.1 \u00b1 6.4 kg; 172.7 \u00b1 7.5 cm). The tests included measurements of ball speed and mechanical tests (horizontal leg press, bench press and trunk rotations). The results of this study indicate that there is a significant correlation between ball speed and power in the legs (horizontal legs press: <em>r2<\/em> = .933, <em>p<\/em> = .000) and trunk (bench press: <em>r2<\/em> = 0.66, <em>p<\/em> = .014). The best predictor of ball speed was the horizontal leg press (<em>r2<\/em> = 0.934, <em>p<\/em> = .000).<\/p>\n\n <div class=\"tags\"> <p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> <span>drive<\/span>, <span>Golf Swing<\/span>, <span>Muscle Power<\/span>, <span>Strength<\/span><\/p> <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abstract Despite the emerging interest in physical fitness in golf, few studies have been conducted to assess the relationship between mechanical power and performance in golf.
