AB  - OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to perform the static and dynamic 
      biomechanical assessment of postural structure and analyze variations of foot 
      pressure in elite golfers. METHODS: A total of 8 golfers (3 female, mean age 
      15.33 +/- 0.57 years; mean height 167 +/- 3.61 cm and mean weight 59.3 +/- 11.71 kg; 5 
      male, mean age 17 +/- 0.83 years; mean height 177.2 +/- 8.61 cm; mean weight 
      72.8 +/- 15.61 kg) from Turkish National Team were participated to this study. 
      Digital Biometry Images Scanning (DBIS) system was used for BioPostural analyses. 
      All participants were applied Modular Electronic Baropodometric test for foot 
      pressure evaluation and Stabilometry for body balance evaluation. Results were 
      analyzed by SPSS 16.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) program, using Wilcoxon test. 
      RESULTS: In static evaluation, there were significant differences in forefoot and 
      rearfoot surface (cm(2)) (p < 0.05); forefoot and rearfoot load (%) (p < 0.05); 
      forefoot and rearfoot weight ratio (%) (p < 0.05) and foot angle (p < 0.05). In 
      dynamic evaluation, there were significant differences in right and left foot 
      surface and load values (p < 0.05). The golfers dominant foot values were higher 
      than non-dominant foot and also the balance parameters were found to be high 
      (p < 0.05). The BPI Static mean value of the golfers were 7 points. The BPI 
      Dynamic mean value of the golfers were 29 points. Also the golfers' Stabilometric 
      (Balance) Evaluation results were 20 points, whereas the norm values ranged from 
      0 to 10. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that static and dynamic postural 
      structure parameters are very important for performances and injuries of the 
      golfers. It is believed that these differences were due to the weight transfer 
      applied especially in the swing motion at the moment of impact. LEVEL OF 
      EVIDENCE: Level IV, Diagnostic Study.
