...keeping the left knee bent in transition avoids early extension...

make sure as you go into impact the left leg, hip AND knee straighten back and diagonally up ...you must rotate on the left hip ....DO NOT rotate on the left knee cuz you'll get injured

...key: keep your posture...do not straighten the spine angle ...maintain side bend right thru impact

This move is key because it shifts the swing arc towards the target and subsequently allows the clubhead to impact the ball with a descending strike i.e. the low point of the arc is in front of the ball.
