Sean Foley (born 1974 in Burlington, Ontario) is a Canadian born golf instructor, who resides in Orlando, Florida and has coached Tiger Woods, Lydia Ko, Sean O'Hair,[1] Hunter Mahan, Stephen Ames, An Byeong-hun, Cameron Champ, Michael Kim, Erik van Rooyen, Sam Horsfield, Justin Rose and Lee Westwood, as well as other PGA Tour, LPGA Tour and LIV Golf professionals.

Foley graduated with an Arts degree from Tennessee State University, where he played on the varsity golf team.

[5] Foley left the Clublink Academy at Glen Abbey in Oakville, Ontario, and moved to Orlando, Florida in August 2006.

Foley also teaches forward shaft lean at impact, which has resulted in Woods saying that he has gotten the distance back that he had earlier in his career.

Woods had clear difficulty hitting draws in the earlier portion of this process, but began to work the ball both ways well in 2013.

He then won three PGA Tour events in 2012 and was in contention in each of the final three majors of the year, but played below average on the weekends and fell short of victory.

Woods announced in late March that he was skipping the Masters Tournament after undergoing a procedure to repair a bulging disc in his lower back.

In the final round of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, at which he was the defending champion, Woods withdrew on the 13th hole citing another back injury.

He later revealed that he "jarred" an area of his lower back when jumping down into a deep bunker after hitting an awkward shot earlier in the final round.

On August 25, 2014, Woods announced on his website that he will no longer be working with Foley, stating "With my next tournament not until my World Challenge event at Isleworth in Orlando, this is the right time to end our professional relationship."
