Nicklaus' posture was obviously highly functional but in light of his recent comments probably not bio-mechanically optimal ... When asked this Monday if he has any plans to play another tour event, Nicklaus shook his head and replied, "Maybe if I get a new body," he said. "I've lost three inches of height. My vertebrae sit one on top of the other, so I just can't move. I have no ability to turn or do anything else."

Which posture for the average sized - height, limbs, etc - golfer and motion offers the best alignment of the spine in terms of efficiency of result and safeguard from injury? thanks.
