Aaron Baddeley goes back to his former coach

Australian Aaron Baddeley has returned to his former coach in an effort to rediscover his best form.
Baddeley has reunited with Melbourne coach Dale Lynch nearly eight years after switching to David Leadbetter.
"I'm really excited to start working with Dale again and I feel he can take us where I want to go, to win major championships," Baddeley said at the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill.
After being coached by Leadbetter, he switched to the American duo of Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer.
Baddeley has won twice on the US PGA Tour and once in Australia in the past three years and also led in the final round at the US Open two years ago, but has regressed somewhat over the past six months.
"The past year has been a little inconsistent," he said. "I thought I was making good progress but there were a couple of things in the swing that weren't clicking, so I went and saw Dale for a second opinion. I liked what he said, talking about golf in general. That's when I decided to make the switch back."
Baddeley, 28, said he had "learned a lot from David Leadbetter and Andy and Mike. And I feel Dale's learned a lot in the last seven or eight years. He's a better coach now and I'm a better student."
