Is he just restaing Hogan's advice re. bent/cupped left wrist at end...
Just look at Gary's face at 1:51...WOW...meet that face in matchplay and I'm already down by about 9 holes!!
Got to love Gary's passion!
Tiger needs to listen - that right forearm position is going to cause losses until he fixes it and Gary shows exactly what the problem is (at the 2:07 mark)
5 minutes with Lynn/Ted and he wins multiple events in a row again

OK . . . Player has some good points IMO. Not sure about that whole supination deal . . . . If you had that down the line sequence of both of them and the face on matching you could really see the differences.
1. Some of that elbow away from the body is the plane Eldrick is on compared to Hogan. . . . so that's a piece of it . . . but if you look at Hogan he ain't "lifty" at all. He stays pretty much close to the elbow plane the whole time.
2. Tiger will shift the plane angle dynamically thru the ball (handle raises up) . . . Face vector and path vector get all jacked up. he can hit it anywhere as a result of the disruption in the #3 angle . . . I think anyhow.
3. If you look at the foot work no question that Hogan's footwork is MUCH better . . . the reason is his hip action. If you had the face on of these to moves you'd see that Hogan's hips are going forward LONGER than Eldrick. If the hips spin then the right foot is going to pop up. Tiger's iron swing is much more solid . . . more Hoganish. That driver swing has MUCHO speed and lots of moving parts for the amount of speed. If you watch where club exits Hogan's body I think it would probably be much different than Tiger. Not sure but would probably be much lower.
4. They both do that archy deal Hogan just does it later.
5. The thing to learn here . . . HOGAN HAD AN AMAZING AND EFFICIENT GOLF SWING FOR THE PLANE ANGLE HE WAS ON. Watch how well his hand path "matches up." Beautiful . . . footwork . . . beautiful. Not many swings stack up . . . even the best player to ever lace 'em up can match Mr. Hogan's move . . . not even close.
Overall I think Player's analysis is pretty dang good.

Do you think that Tiger is aiming for Hogan plane through impact but his flat left wrist (WITH HIS CURRENT TIGER GRIP) from top/transition does not allow an on plane motion, late release of acc 2/3 and elbow plane?
I think that only someone like Yoda knows the answer. And he probably won't say even if you torture him. But he may point to the problem. I bet his answer would be 1-L; somewhere.
I couldn't say what his Driver Problem is. It's beyond me how a guy can hit a two iron from 235 yard to a tucked pin yet can't hit a fairway with the Driver. But, even his mid irons are off.
I think that Bucket makes a strong case about the #3 and off plane Right Forearm all over the place.
A contributing factor could be the ridiculously diffused sweetspot on that hellish driver, but I would think that he would have had that tweaked out of his handmade driver a long time ago but not out of the Production model. However, he could probably play with a Hockey Stick.
One thing is certain. Tiger ran into a problem that he hasn't solved yet.
