Described as "a visionary thinker with a passion for teaching and learning," Phillips is located in Oceanside, California, and co-founder of the Titleist Performance Institute (TPI). He has been a member of the PGA of America since 1993 and has devoted the past 29 years to becoming a world-class performance coach.
Dave has been a Golf Magazine Top 100 teacher since 2000 and was recognized by Golf Digest as a Top 50 teacher in America. His PGA section has also recognized Dave as Teacher of the Year and Horton Smith Award winner for his junior Golf development work.
The Titleist Performance Institute, or TPI, was developed by Dave Phillips and Dr. Greg Rose to create the world's first golf performance facility that looked at every aspect of a player's game, from equipment fitting to biomechanics and the human body. As TPI developed, it became evident that the information obtained from working with the games best should be passed on through education. The TPI Certified Brand was born to educate golf, fitness, and medical professionals. The TPI-certified brand is the largest of its kind globally, and those accredited experts have helped the games of hundreds of thousands of recreational golfers. Since the start of the educational seminars in 2006, there are now over 25,000 TPI-certified experts in 65 countries worldwide.
Dave frequently appears on the Golf Channel and as a co-host of the Golf Fitness Academy and Titleist Performance Institute Television shows, broadcast in 77 countries over an eight-year time frame. Dave has also written articles for Golf Magazine, Golf Digest, Sports Illustrated, and Men's Health and is a sought-after public speaker that has lectured throughout the world on golf and sports performance. www.mytpi.com
