Well Justin Rose had gone 9-years without a win on the PGA Tour. He began practicing Fearless Golf in April and, lo and behold … 2 wins in 2 months. Five 5 years ago (has it really been that long?) Camilo became a fearless golfer — and his putting stats improved consecutively year after year. 3 wins and now a top 20 player in the world. Matt Kuchar joined the Fearless Golf Team and won at Turning Stone. Heath Slocum, Davis Love III, Chad Campbell, Justin Leonard … all joined Fearless Golf and began winning.
And now Stuart Appleby … going into a 2 year slump, he joined the team and, although it took a while … he became the 5th player in the history of the PGA Tour to shoot a 59.
I don’t say this with arrogance but rather with *wonder* at how a few simply ideas – when properly applied – can actually translate into such profound improvements with golfers. In academia, we call this the “theory to practice bridge” and I am just very happy that these principles are having such a massive impact on golfers. My scientific mind keeps tweaking the ideas because I truly want golfers to have a great mental game, but for now Fearless Golf has evolved into a nice place, and I feel confident it can help just about any golfer play a little (or in some cases, a LOT) better!
PGA Championship 2010 right around the corner … let’s see what the future holds for our team of Fearless Golfers. Keep working on your mental game of golf. As we are learning, good sport psychology when properly applied, can lead to winning golf!
