According to an entry in Life in the Rough, mental conditioning is a key ingredient for rising to the top of the golf world. Although the author implies there may be more factors, he only goes into a few in this piece. Life in the Rough has a mental game section, with several useful entries on gamesmanship, repetition, warmups, fear, pressure, discipline, etc.
Thanks for the link back, Paul. I’m glad you enjoyed the article. I’m fascinated with mental conditioning and preparation in not just golf, but in all sports, and even other aspects of life.
