Golf Digest introduced this distinguished list in 2017 to put the spotlight on the top trainers “in the trenches” – those dedicated to helping amateur golfers improve their game and overall health. The three GolfForever instructors chosen personify the diverse background, clientele and personalities the list aims to encompass, as well as a tireless commitment to making their clients better athletes and golfers.

Doddato has spent 30 years in professional golf, including 23 years specializing in golf fitness, during which she has trained over 50 tour players. Her expertise has been featured on ESPN, Golf Channel, Golf Digest, Golfweek, PGA Tour Radio, and as a TPI presenter and speaker. Based in Los Angeles, her GolfForever routines emphasize the biomechanics of the golf swing-body connection, using restorative methods to correct swing flaws.

Roberts, also based in Los Angeles, is an avid golfer himself whose authenticity shines through in his content found within the GolfForever app. He has built a strong online presence, amassing 28,000 followers on Instagram.

Shepard, a nationally recognized physical therapist since 2001 who is based out of the Mike Bender Academy in the Orlando, Fla. area, has worked with countless top LPGA tour players, collegiate golfers and amateurs alike. He has played an integral role in creating golf-specific workouts in the GolfForever app for the past three years. 

“We’re extremely proud to see Andrea, Sheldon, and Scott named among the country’s best fitness trainers,” says Jon Levy, VP of Communications and Strategic Partnerships. “The education, passion and creativity these three amazing individuals bring to every GolfForever video and client they see in person is second to none. It’s a fitting honor for them to be recognized for their talents and an honor for us to be associated with them.”

GolfForever is the preferred fitness training system of Scottie Scheffler, reigning Masters champion, 2024 Olympic Gold Medalist and FedEx Cup champion, who has been religiously using the GolfForever Training System, including the GolfForever Swing Trainer, at home and on the PGA TOUR since he began his prodigious run of wins in 2022.
