My golf game is influenced heavily by the wind-swept links of my home in England, a place where low-flying, accurate iron shots are much more important than 300-yard drives. The courses are designed differently, and there is a different mentality in the way the game is played. Back home, accuracy is the goal. Here, it's distance. So when I came to America for college five years ago, I knew I had to get longer. When I entered Northwestern University and started working with Coach Pat Goss, I discovered just how inflexible my body was and how that played a key role in my lack of distance off the tee. I could carry a driver only about 240 yards. To help me get longer, we worked on increasing my hamstring and torso flexibility. We also elongated my posture. I have this tendency to make a sitting motion during the backswing, which shortens my swing radius and makes it tough to hit the ball high. Now my posture has improved and, thanks to increased flexibility, I can make a more complete turn with my chest and arms. I would say I was 25 yards longer off the tee when I won my first PGA Tour event -- the Southern Farm Bureau Classic last year -- than when I won the NCAA Championship in 1999. Even better, I've lost no accuracy in the proces ----- The Donald file Full name: Luke Campbell Donald Born: December 7, 1977 Birthplace: Hempstead, England Height, weight: 5-foot-9, 160 pounds Turned professional: 2001 Driver: Titleist 975 JVS Ball: Ben Hogan Apex Tour Clubhead Speed: 108-110 mph Ball speed: 234 feet per second Launch angle: 8.3 degrees 2002 Driving distance: 274.6 yards
