Katherine Roberts
Katherine Roberts "Yoga For Golfers" has changed the way not only the common golfer views yoga but also the professional golfers.  Tour pros such as Brad Faxon, Aaron Baddely, Andrew Parr are fellow yoga believers.  Yoga is used to:
"Improve flexibility, strength and range of motion for greater distance, Cultivate clarity of mind to increase concentration and focus, improve overall fitness to reduce risk of injury and recovery time, improve balance, coordination to gain club control. As well as enhanced breathing awareness for better swing tempo."
Yoga is also used as a component of physical and mental conditioning.  Yoga is taking the PGA Tour by store and is seen as one of the golf world's hottest new fitness tools.  By increasing your range of motion you can expect 20-40% increase leading to greater distance, accurance and strength on the golf course.

30% of all professional golfers at any given time are playing injuried.  The statistics for players suffering from back pain is 53% of males and 45% of female golfers.  by following a carefully and specifically designed Yoga for Golfers program it will in time reduce the risk of injury. 

Yoga can not only improve your game with increased range of motion but also get you back to your game quicker after an injury.
