Tips: Andy Sullivan on how to play a 30 yard bunker shot

Struggling to place the ball nicely on the green from the bunker? Finding it difficult to hit a 30 yard bunker shot? European Tour player and 2016 Ryder Cup rookie Andy Sullivan has some useful tips to help you with your bunker play.

Setup is vital for an effective bunker shot.

Using a triangle setup will guarantee you have good posture for a shot of this type.

By creating a triangle in the sand and drawing a line an inch behind the ball out to his left foot. He then creates the other line meeting with his right foot. Giving him a wide stance.

Follow these tips from Sullivan to help improve play from 30 yard bunkers and take your short game to the next level.
