The single-plane golf swing was made famous by legendary Canadian golfer Moe Norman, who is considered by many to be the greatest ball striker of all time. Golf swing coach Todd Graves had the opportunity to spend time with Norman before Norman passed in 2004 and learned the details of his unique swing from the man himself. Graves went on to establish the Todd Graves Golf Academy, which teaches Norman’s single-plane swing.

Georgia-based golfer Parker Elrod is a Graves-certified teacher of Norman’s single-plane swing and uses it with his hickory golf clubs. Williams met Parker at the 2021 Florida Hickory Open and again at the 2021 Wisconsin Hickory Open at Lawsonia Links, where Williams began applying aspects of the single-plane swing to his hickory golf game. This first session of lessons took place in November, 2021. Watch a profile of Parker Elrod here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7M3NupXaTo
