Professional golfer Mike Miller's drive is analyzed and used to explain the physics concepts of collisions and compressions.

Agronomy is used to maintain turfgrass and create ideal environments for golf.

USGA engineer Steve Quintavalla explains why a golf ball is designed with tiny dimples, or impressions, on its surface.

USGA research engineer Jim Hubbell explains how Newton's Laws of Motion are demonstrated in every round of golf.

LPGA golfer Paula Creamer's swing is analyzed to illustrate potential and kinetic energy.

Torque and moment of inertia are two key physics concepts to hit the ball straight.

Maintaining a golf course requires the use of one of nature's most precious resources: water.

The physics concepts of torque, centripetal force, and double pendulum effect help with powerful drives.

Unlike most sports, in the game of golf the player with the lowest score wins, and negative numbers can indicate a well-played game.
