Do everything slowly
Gary Player recommends that one of the best ways to prepare for a good tournament round is to do everything slowly on the way to teeing off.
Gary Player recommends that one of the best ways to prepare for a good tournament round is to do everything slowly on the way to teeing off.
Brush your teeth slowly, eat your breakfast slowly, drive to the course slowly, dress slowly and give yourself plenty of time to warm-up and get the feeling of the greens without rushing.
This will put you onto the first tee in a calm and focused manner with a good chance of hitting your drive down the middle of the fairway.
