Who has the most natural swing in pro golf?
In my opinion, Bubba Watson has the most natural swing. He has never taken a lesson in his life; all he did was make big circles for his swing technique. Once that was in, he simply had fun making the ball curve. And guess what? For some, that is the best way to go!! See why in this video.
Kristoffer Reitan just won his first PGA Tour event at the 2026 Truist Championship. He is a Ping staff member and has a complete set of clubs from the brand. He did make a late driver switch this weekend that helped propel him to victory.

Finau’s unique long putter experiment, Webb’s WILD irons | Inside the Ropes | Truist Championship
In this week’s episode of Inside the Ropes from the Truist Championship, Alistair Cameron catches up with Tony Finau, who is in the midst of an interesting long-putter experiment, and Webb Simpson, whose irons must be seen to be believed. Also featuring: Sepp Straka, Ryan Gerard, and much more!
Right now, I am tied for first place in my league! Don’t worry, the wheels will fall off as we get further into the year, but let’s keep the train rolling with 14 brand new clubs this week. We are off on the back nine again, so the driver is back in, and the 7-wood is out, as the course dictates what clubs I tend not to use. Excited to get these New Level irons out there and see if I can catch some of that driver magic I had down at Pinehurst with the Wilson Dynapwr+.

I think you mean instinctual and functional. Not natural. But whatever works, that’s the best about golf.

30 hdcp golfers have the most natural golf swings. They are usually swinging just as nature, genetics and unconscious would have us move.
For an efficient golf swing, it requires overcoming genetic tendency, overcoming what is natural.

The golf swing is not natural.
IMO golf instructors who can distinguish between natural , genetically preprogrammed tendency and proper movement for a golf swing, will allow golfers to progress.

Rubbish. McIlroy has the most natural golf swing.

HI, Great vid. Knowing there are different time of running/walking styles (impulse coming from the legs vs upper body), do you think that this motion can be applied to all players?
Cheers
