Watching Sean Foley on sky at the British Masters, what the hell is he on? The bloke just seems to talk gibberish, Nick Dougherty even pulling faces when he’s babbling on !!

Stack and tilt bloke

I guess Rose seems to understand what he says - been his coach for a long time

Remember when seeing him on TV when he first worked with Tiger, never figured out what he was talking about once..

But done wonders for Rose

No doubt he works well with Rose, but he just seems to ramble on talking nonsense. Trying to hard to sound intelligent and enlightened!!!

He WAS Hunter Mahans long term coach until Autumn last year. Under Foley, he went to world No 4, but has fallen off massively.
Hunter Mahan is now working with Chris O'Connell, who coaches Matt Kuchar. He's made the cut on his last 2 tournaments, so seems to be moving in the right direction 👍

I think sometimes it’s just a ‘new voice’ that makes the difference. Same as when you pick up a new putter and suddenly you become Seve :D

Twaddle! Though he has been accused of being one - by 'the anti Stack and Tilt forces'!

Here's a quote from an article made when he was Tiger's coach...

'There are some common threads between Stack & Tilt and Foley's swing philosophy, and Tiger is definitely more centered throughout his swing under Foley's tutelage. But to say that Foley teaches the method as advocated by Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer is not accurate.'

In fact, the best description is that he's a 'Sean Foley swing' bloke!
