While I was on the range at Kingsmill yesterday I listned in on Judy Rankin speaking with Christie Kerr. Kerr was discussing some of her key swing 'feels', as well as her strong background in teaching.

"right now I'm feeling my right side going 'down'" says Kerr as she demonstrates quite exactly the 'magic of the right forearm'

On the range, she was 'dead on' all morning. Didn't miss a single shot by more than a yard or two.

Enter the mental game - she missed her 1st tee shot, which clearly upset her, missing a tap in for a par recovery from two very tough spots. On the 3rd hole, she yanked one far left, but recovered with a par. Despite the relatively good recoveries on all but the first hole, she had a tough day - all mental game from what I could tell.

She had lost the 'magic of the right forearm' on a few shots, getting to high with her right side, but it wasn't a swing flaw at all, but a mental one.

Kerr and Webb on the range hit the ball as well as anyone I have ever seen, but Webb took it to the course.
