Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill


March 25, 2009

I had an opportunity to spend a morning with Scott Fonda, DC, DACBO in the medical trailer at this recent PGA Tour event. Scott has been on the staff for the PGA for the past 3 years. Days working as the staff chiropractor are long (5:30 am to as late as 7:00 pm) but he says that working with the PGA players is extremely rewarding. Many of the players are very interested in a higher level of fitness and health that focus on strength, agility and endurance. Golf (and travel) is very demanding on the spine so many players get worked on daily when at an event. The ‘team’ is comprised of two physical therapists, a chiropractor and the medical director.
