Stephen Ames is learning how to adapt on the Champions Tour rocketing to fourth on the Charles Schwab Cup standings after his first tournament of the season.
The Canadian Golf Hall of Fame member finished second at last weekend’s Morocco Champions, rocketing to fourth on the Charles Schwab Cup standings after his first tournament of the season. In his fifth year on the senior circuit, Ames says he’s learned the importance of being adaptable.
“Some of us sometimes go through playing golf with pain. So they make adjustments in their swing for that pain that they’ve had.”The 55-year-old Ames says that taking more than two months off between the 2019 and 2020 seasons was beneficial for his game. He also started working with Montreal-based golf coach Shauheen Nakhjavani, exchanging videos by email.
“They’ve got a bigger midsection, all those kind of things. So the adjustments in the swing change because your body has changed.”
