Actually, I think golf is something you can definitely succeed in if you just show what you’ve been doing. So, having a routine is really important to do well in it. You know how athletes have their own superstitions and always try to do things the same way. For example, only take two practice swings, look at the target exactly twice. You have to hit the ball within 2 seconds of entering. They keep repeating these routines and try to train a lot that way. Usually, when the yips happen or confidence drops, the first thing people ask is, “What’s your routine?” Things like muscle memory that the body remembers all come from routines. And people who don’t have those tend to get the yips more quickly. So for me, if I don’t put on my hat like this, I feel uneasy. And then there’s a routine where you do two practice swings and look at the target twice as well. But this is something that any professional would know. And for those whom the routine is really important, they have everything set like getting up a few hours before the match, arriving at the golf course a few hours before, doing this and that. Whether it’s eating a banana before leaving or while beating time, it’s all planned. In a way, you could say athletes are almost like obsessive compulsive patients. Right. Right. People like Tiger Woods are completely obsessive. In the case of someone like Tiger Woods, he records videos of himself when he’s in good condition and always compares them to that, trying to match it all. There are also dedicated professionals who handle such things. That’s why he’s number one.
