Claude Harmon III
Head Coach, TeamFLO Golf Digest's #5 Teacher in America · Golf Magazine Top 100
When Cameron Smith — a major champion and former World No. 2 — needed to find his game again, he left the coach he'd worked with since he was nine years old and came to Claude Harmon III. Weeks later, he made his first major-championship weekend in six tries and was in the mix on Sunday.
That's the pattern. When the best players in the world reach a turning point, they come here. Dustin Johnson. Cameron Smith. A roster that has won all four majors. The work is the same whether you're chasing a tour card or breaking 80: we study how you actually play before we ever touch your swing.
Claude Harmon III is one of the most accomplished coaches in modern golf, and the third generation of the most influential teaching family the game has known. His grandfather, Claude Harmon, won the 1948 Masters. His father, Butch Harmon, coached Tiger Woods through the most dominant stretch of his career. Claude carries that lineage forward with a style all his own — new-school concepts delivered in an old-school, no-clutter way.
Ranked 5th on Golf Digest's 2024–2025 Best Teachers in America and a Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor, Claude has lowered scores for tour winners, celebrities, and amateurs of every level. He's a regular contributor to Sky Sports Golf and hosts the Son of a Butch podcast.
