the page states the facts clearly, he did invent the coaching and all those things. Number of players and titles amassed by his pupils is also a fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.125.140.227 (talk) 11:25, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Game involving David Leadbetter

I found out that David Leadbetter is having a video game produced by the Wii, by Data Design Interactive. Can someone add this in? (Admiral jolyon (talk) 13:41, 9 August 2009 (UTC))

Inaccuracies

It is inaccurate to state that Mr. Leadbetter is "The father of the modern Golf swing" because the Modern golf swing was described by Ben Hogan in his book, Five Lessons, The Modern Fundementals of Golf written in 1957.

It is inaccurate to refer to Mr. Leadbetter as the "man who invented the golf instruction industry" because many schools and golf academies similar to the David Leadbetter Golf Academy existed prior to his joining the industry. For example, in 1983 Jimmy Ballard opened a similar golf school at the Doral Resort in Miami, Florida. The school exists today under Jim McLean. The golf instruction industry existed well before Mr. Leadbetter joined it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.92.168.138 (talk) 21:34, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
