I see what you're saying, and yes there is a direct correlation (google it Scavs) linking the two. I think there have been plenty of guys through the years that have gotten stronger and their games gone downhill. Look how bad Duval got when he lost a ton of weight and got much fitter. People don't realize how much of an effect that has on your swing. Look at how gradual Tigers build has changed. It wasn't a one or even two year deal...nothing was sudden at all, very gradual.
Being fitter doesnt always improve a golfer, especially if it drastically changes the dynamics of your swing. I lost 50lbs between ages 20-22. Once I lost that weight, it took me quite a while to get used to swinging completely different than I was used to.
