The objective of the Reach, Roll, and Lift Test is to measure the mobility of the shoulder joint and the strength of the lower trap muscles. Weakness in these areas can cause the player to have difficulties with scapular control and posture issues at set-up.

The objective of the Bridge with Leg Extension Test is to measure control and stability in the Pelvis/Lumbar Spine/Core. The main muscles involved in this test are the butt muscles (Gluteal), which play the biggest role in stability and power production in the swing.

The objective of the Seated Trunk Rotation Test is to measure the rotational mobility of the thoraco-lumbar spine. This test shows if the golfer has enough mobility to maintain proper upper body posture and stability during the swing.

The objective of the Wrist Pronation and Supination Test is to measure if your wrists can perform the turning motion with the palms facing up (Supination) and down (Pronation) to a sufficient degree.

The objective of the Wrist Hinge Test is to measure if your wrists can perform the hinging motion up and down to a sufficient degree.

The objective of the Wrist Flexion-Extension Test is to measure if your wrists can perform flexion and extension to a sufficient degree.

The objective of the Cervical Rotation Test is to measure if your cervical spine (the neck area) has sufficient mobility in rotation and flexion. This test mainly targets the top portion of the backswing where your head maintains in position and your chin touches your collarbone.

The objective of the Lower Quarter Rotation Test is to measure how well your lower body rotates with your upper body in relation to the golf swing. This test requires sufficient internal/external rotation of the hip as well as inversion/eversion of both feet.

The objective of the Lat Test is to measure lat mobility, shoulder range of motion limitations, and restrictions in the scapular region. This test will determine if there is any tightness in the lats. Having sufficient lat mobility can prevent loss of posture during the golf swing as well as allow the golfer to rotate their shoulders with proper control on the backswing and follow-through.

The objective of the Single Leg Balance Test is to measure overall balance. This test will determine if there are any imbalances in ankle mobility or balancing mechanisms, and it also challenges core stability.

The objective of the 90/90 is to test the range of external rotation in one’s shoulder and their ability to maintain upper body stability at the top of the backswing. Having the correct range of motion as a golfer is important as it will affect your capability to achieve an ideal position to start the downswing.

The objective of the toe touch is to test mobility in the lower back and hamstrings, plus it can help identify a hip problem versus a lower back/core limitation. Having the correct range of motion as a golfer is important as it will affect your address position and dynamic posture.

The objective of the torso rotation test is to see how well you can separate your upper body from your lower body.  The better you can rotate your upper body while maintaining a stable lower body, the better you can properly sequence your backswing and generate a good coil.   

The Overhead Deep Squat is one of the most complex tests in the TPI Physical Screen. Research conducted by TPI has shown that if a golfer is unable to complete a full deep squat with their heels on the ground, it is nearly impossible to maintain posture during their downswing.

The objective of the pelvic rotation test is to see how well you can separate your lower body from your upper body. The better you can rotate your lower body while maintaining a stable upper body, the better you can properly sequence your downswing.

Your ability to move and control the position of the pelvis is vital for optimal power transfer from your lower body to your upper body during your golf swing. Top level players can tilt their pelvis backwards by up to 20 degrees during the downswing, due to the firing of their abdominal muscles.

A TPI golf screen is a physical assessment of how well your body moves in relation to your golf swing.
