Golfer without hand
When born, Canesi did not have a right hand, and left hand with only two pieces of bones, can be twisted like crabs to "pick up" the small object. With such defects, Canesi had to grip the stick into the armpits to polish. This type of swing came naturally, when he borrowed Xi's stick to play at the age of 6.
Coming to Golf, Canesi belongs to "Lefty faction", such as Phil Mickelson - the right wing and the left wing guides, currently reaching Handicap 5.6.
You have to use special sticks. In the usual stick set, the longest driving handle fluctuates in the range of 46-48 inches (1 inch = 2.54 cm). But Canesi's wooden sticks, the rolling part of 58 inches long, and the iron group is 56 inches.
He has just been designed by Cobra and donated a set. And with new tools, Canesi can play from 200 to 220 yards, hitting iron sticks No. 7 is 150 yards, while Pitching Wedge usually reaches 100 yards. "They take me to the headquarters to try the stick, complete the design and sponsor the finished product, thereby helping me to the new level," Canesi mentioned on Golfweek on July 19.
Whenever he has a goal, he is determined to pursue it. "Nothing can prevent me from striving. I want to show people everything has a way to accomplish."
Canesi reminds himself of that view by tattooing "Hakuna Matata" on the ribs, inspired by the song of the same name in the cartoon "Lion King", version 1994. That phrase means "nothing trouble" In Swahili.
So far, Canesi has recorded two Hole-in-One, in which the nearest 2018 contributes to help him up the Morning Drive program of Golf Channel.
