It’s always fun to see a golfer working on his craft in public without a care in the world if anyone is watching. Checking a reflection in the mirror to see if his or her arm is in the right spot, working on rotation, or anything else they’re struggling with.
Pro-athletes are just like us, and Dwyane Wade is no exception. Wade, who was recently featured in a video series where he was coached for the day by Tiger Woods, has officially caught the golf bug. He was just in California for a lesson from George Gankas, swing coach to PGA Tour pros Matthew Wolff, Sung Kang, among others.
At the Utah Jazz game Wednesday, a team Wade is a part-owner of, Tony Finau sat with the Miami Heat legend courtside and offered some swing advice.

Finau was in Las Vegas last week, and despite firing a bogey-free 65 in the final round, finished in a tie for 45th at the CJ Cup.
Hopefully, Wade takes Finau’s advice and runs with it, it’s tough to find someone more knowledgeable about the game than a Ryder Cup champion.
