Since 2013, Kevin has been recognized as a "Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher".For over 15 years, Kevin has been a pioneer in the application of empirical analysis of golf statistics that allow players to optimise tactical decision making (analogous to the use of "Moneyball" analytics in other sports). In cooperation with his long-time Australian counterpart who developed software for the collection of key data, Kevin developed a methodology for interpreting and applying golf player data to answer specific questions ("Kirkmetrics"), and its success can be measured in the results of his players.To continuously innovate, Kevin collaborates with performance leaders in other sports, and regularly hosts top coaches from around the world to compare results and explore ideas. He also provides camps for national golf teams and elite players, and authors articles in Golf Magazine, Golf Digest, In Play Magazine and other publications. Kevin actively promotes the game of golf though his support of junior golf and education.Kevin joins CoachYas to discuss a range of experiences, lessons learned and tips to put into practice.
