QUESTION:
I am going to be a sophomore in high school next year and i am an 8 handicap. I have been playing in a lot of junior tournaments and i haven’t been quite playing to the best of my ability during those tournaments. And its not because i am nervous because i am never nervous. Can anyone give me some advice on how to perform well in golf tournaments?

Hi,
I am just like you. I’m 14 and in alot of junior golf tournaments. The front nine I might go out and shoot a 40 which is good for me. But then last week on my 10th hole I hit a horrible hook and i had to take a drop. I ended up getting an 8 on the hole which ruined my whole mindset. I ended up shooting a 51. So the reason why Tiger is so good is because he can forget about the 1 shot he hit bad and still try and make it up. He doesn’t carry his anger on which would end up ruining the rest of his round. He forgets about that shot and trys to make up for it.
I hope this info helped.
