Hey Everyone,

Apologies for the absence of my daily posts for the last 9 days or so. I have been unwell with a cold including a blocked nose, fever and overall weakness. And we also went for a holiday ‘across the ditch’ to New Zealand (while I was unwell).

Before leaving, I had a discussion with my brother and he told me about the sick golfer. Apparently, sick golfers actually end up playing better than well golfers. The reason for this is that the expectation of shooting a good score is arguably greatly reduced and the objective moves from good scoring to just taking it one shot at a time. There have been real life experiences of professional golfers who were not feeling 100% but ended up playing better as they were more relaxed and had less pressure to play well. 

A positive in the negative!

More posts shall follow in the next couple of days to make up for all the days that i’ve missed.

Until then, happy golfing to all 🙂
