Tournament Play - Everyone Makes Mistakes

In a local club tournament (earlier Blog) I experienced and observed an interesting phenomenom of playing under the pressure of a tournament. Many players who make a mistake...miss hit, slice or draw into the rough, into traps or the water, three-putts, etc...get down on themselves and let it effect their game after the bad shot.


What you learn with expereince is that almost all players in the tournament will also make mistakes, it's just a matter of time. It happens in every round, we all will make mistakes.


Learn to put your bad shot or bad hole behind you. Think like this, "I can do better, stay positive and the opponent is going to make mistakes to, I just need to stay focused and be ready."
