What is TPI?
The Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) is the world’s leading authority on how the human body functions in relation to the golf swing. Founded in 2003, TPI has analyzed thousands of golfers, from PGA Tour professionals to amateur players, to understand how physical limitations impact swing mechanics, efficiency, and performance.
TPI operates on the philosophy that there is no single way to swing a golf club, but rather an optimal swing for each golfer based on their physical capabilities. Through movement screening and performance assessments, TPI-certified professionals identify mobility, stability, and strength deficiencies that may be hindering a golfer’s potential.
Why is TPI Important for Golfers?
A TPI assessment can be a game-changer for golfers of all skill levels. It helps players:
- Improve Performance – By optimizing movement efficiency and strength, golfers can generate more power, control, and consistency in their swing.
- Reduce the Risk of Injury – Identifying and addressing movement restrictions can help prevent common golf injuries such as lower back pain, shoulder strain, and hip discomfort.
- Enhance Longevity in the Sport – Proper training ensures golfers can enjoy the game for years without physical setbacks.
- Maximize Swing Efficiency – Understanding the Body-Swing Connection™ allows for a tailored approach to improving swing mechanics, reducing compensations and inefficiencies.
What Does a TPI Assessment Include?
During a TPI assessment at Advantage Sport Medicine North, golfers undergo a comprehensive evaluation led by Austin Holt, our Titleist Performance Institute Medical 2 Physiotherapist.
The assessment includes:
- TPI Physical Screening – A detailed movement screening that assesses mobility, stability, flexibility, and strength to identify physical limitations affecting the golf swing.
- Swing Analysis – Evaluation of how the golfer’s physical abilities influence their swing mechanics, identifying compensations and inefficiencies.
- Customized Training & Treatment Plan – Based on the findings, a personalized plan is created to address mobility restrictions, improve strength, and enhance overall golf performance.

TPI assessments are beneficial for:
- Amateur & Professional Golfers looking to improve their game.
- Golfers with Pain or Previous Injuries who need a structured approach to recovery and prevention.
