Use this swing thought for crisp contact off tight lies around the green

Golf instructor Debbie Doniger provides technical advice for executing an open-faced wedge shot from a firm surface near the green. She recommends a narrow stance with weight on the lead foot, an open body alignment, and a raised club handle to ensure proper loft and shoulder positioning.

To achieve consistent contact, players should focus on continuous torso rotation through the impact zone rather than attempting to lift the ball manually. Doniger suggests visualizing the motion of lighting a match to encourage a shallow, controlled brush of the turf with the club toe.
