Golf Psychology: What Other Golfers Are Shooting And Vijay Singh's Mental Toughness Secret

Golf psychology is about mental toughness and to unleash your true mental toughness, you must understand what you're up against in golf.

In other words, what do you expect to shoot?

Let's compare your score to the average scores of American male golfers. The National Golf Federation states that only 20% of all the golfers in America consistently break 90. In fact, 60% shoot between 90 and 116. The average score among all American male golfers is 94.3.

What happened when you compared yourself to these stats?

If you're like most golfers, you feel better already, because you're probably already scoring better than most golfers.

Now I just gave you these numbers, but what you need to know about a winning golf psychology is that once you start golfing, you should not be focused on your score.

Think about your last great round of golf. If you're like most golfers, you were not thinking about the score during the set up your short, or during your swing, or when you were draining a putt.

A winning golf psychology happens when you focus on what you are actually doing - the specifics of the game -- and a good score will just happen.

That's how pro Vijay Singh won the 86th PGA Championship. He admits, 'My focus two months ago was on the wrong thing. I was focusing so hard on the No. 1 spot that I started not focusing on my own game. Now, I am totally focused on what I am doing, my game, and not worried about the rankings...'

Remember, golf is a paradox.

When you stop focusing on your score and focus on the journey instead, it's magic.
