Which current player on TOUR has the best looking swing in your opinion?

Morning all,
bit slow at work this morning so i thought i would ask the question, who has the best looking swing on tour?
i personnally like Raphael Jacquelin as his swing never seems to change from shot to shot and he never really "goes at the ball". Obviously young master McIlroy has a very good looking and effective swing too........

Kenny Perry, Ricky Fowler, Jeev Milka Singh, Jim Furyk......

You should have said 'aside from Rory' as that's who everyone will go for!

I'm going to say Ryo Isihkawa - awesome!

Who cares?

I doubt they do if they keep winning.

No one cares but it's more entertaining to think about than accounts!

Elkington

Donald for me, if only for his composed follow through...

Nice one kwini. No-one mentioned Couples yet?

I was enjoying watching this one while he was in contention last weekend:

Quite similar to Matsuyama the Japanese amateur:

Couples is the smoothest, but In-Kyung Kim looks good.

What are we talking about here? A good looking swing or a technically good swing?

Actually different things!

Quite like watching Natalie Gulbis myself

I really think she is a munter Davie. Typical brassy Yank.

SR, what about Anna Rawson or Morgan Pressel?

Superficially attractive in a conventional way I suppose, but not really doing much for me. Bella Emburg everytime.

Ha ha i can't argue with that!

I'm warming to Anne Hathaway. She's small and petite in a sort of tie her up and theres not a damn thing she could do about it kinda way.

Paula Creamer

Guess this thread has gone off topic then

Have always liked Peter Hanson's swing.

Similar tempo to Steve Elkington.

Paula Creamer has a nice swing

Baboon, you must be a really big fan to post that twice!

The best looking swing, or the one you like watching most? Best looking is a toss up between Rory and Luke, but the one I like watching is Lee Westwood. Why? Because in my deepest dreams and wildest moments I think I might be able to do that! I can't and deep down I know that, but it is closer to being achievable and wonderfully effective.
Now if I could borrow a putting stroke - step up Rhys Davies!!

Got to agree with this one. The nice thing about Jacquelin's swing is that it's so effortless. Now, i know there's years of practice and refinment in that swing, but we could all do well to watch his swing and realise that, with most aspects of golf, simplicity is king.

I shall go for the Celestial Tour~~ Tony Lema.

Lots of comparisons in the US media between Rory's swing and that of another Celestial Tour member, Sam Snead.

Kwinni
I find that one a bit strange, I know that there is a big height difference but I don't see it.
Does Rory play standard length clubs as he seems to grip down on a lot of his iron shots.
This was something I used to do as a youngster and I tried it on the middle to short irons last game I played and it worked well.

Some of the best ball strikers in the game at the moment, Anthony Kim, Garcia and Ricky Fowler are all quite fond of gripping down on clubs, although of course a shorter club is easier to be more accurate with gripping down will take some of the distance off too.

I've always loved watching Ernie Els's swing. I love the tempo of it and how effortless he makes it look.

Doon,
Snead and McIlroy: I think they're referring as much to the uninhibited freedom of movement in Rory's swing as anything else a la Slammin' Sam.

DLIII. Just seen, and indeed heard, him on a par 3 at the John Deere. Lovely looking swing that hasn't changed over the years, and the impact sounded fabulous.

Good call Smithers, I too have admired his swing for many years.

For me Goosen's silk like swing and tempo together with his general 'golf calmness' is very impressive.

McIlroy is up there for me and not because he's just won the U.S. Open. Particularly impressed with his balance through and after impact; I've always subscribed that a good finish is indicative of a good swing before and through impact.

Ryo Ishikawa looks nice too in a classical way.
