Ranked 2nd to Butch Harmon on the 2005-06 edition of Golf Digest's list of the "50 Greatest Teachers" in the United States, Leadbetter had little success as a player on the European and Southern African tours.
Showing an interest in the techniques, mechanics and psychology of the sport he soon moved from player into instructor mode and came to wide notice in the 1980s when he rebuilt the swing of Nick Faldo, who then went on to win six major championships.
David Leadbetter now runs an international chain of golf academies headquartered at the ChampionsGate Golf Resort in Florida, whose course was designed by Greg Norman. There are also branches elsewhere in North America and around Europe and Asia.
Leadbetter himself concentrates on teaching tour professionals and on instructing other coaches in his methods, who then teach his ideas at his well-known academies. Aside from Faldo, his list of students reads like the "Who's Who" of Golf. They include Ernie Els, Michelle Wie and many other well known players on the leading tours.
Leadbetter has also published several books and produced numerous instructional videos and DVDs.
