Anatomy of the swings of some participants -
similar or different to what the male pros of last week were doing?
Anyone care to comment on these backswings - in terms of how many separate joints are being moved and potential consequences to both ball-striking efficiency and injury potential?
What seem to be the common factors?
Please post your comments here.

Stacy Lewis, Michelle Wie, Paula Creamer, and (lower row) Jessica Korda, Se Ri Pak, Lexi Thompson.
[On the subject of anatomically efficient positions and injury - look at Wie's kinesio-tape on quadriceps, hamstrings and around the knees, any guesses what swing-factor might exacerbate pain in the area?]
