Director of Instruction at Butch Harmon Floridian, Claude Harmon is in the vanguard of the new generation of golf teachers. Steeped in tradition both his grandfather, Claude Harmon, and father Claude “Butch” Harmon Jr., have been the dominant teachers of their generation. The Harmon family pedigree has been the perfect foundation for Claude to build his knowledge of golf instruction. Claude’s teaching philosophy and methods have delivered lower scores and better, more repeatable swings for seasoned tour players, celebrities, and amateurs of all abilities and is now ranked 5th on Golf Digest's 2023-2024 Best Teachers in America List and a Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor.
His past and present students include Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Pat Perez, Marina Alex, Pajaree Anannarukarn, Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler, Kris Ventura, Jimmy Walker, Ernie Els, Adam Scott, Si-Woo Kim, Darren Clarke, Trevor Immelman and Yani Tseng. He is uniquely qualified to apply “new school” teaching concepts in an “old school” fashion. He is a regulator contributor to Sky Sports Golf and hosts the popular Son of a Butch podcast below.
Claude currently offers his performance experience or 90 minutes sessions and is the Head Coach for TeamFLO.
