The series discusses the mindset that helps PGA TOUR and LPGA Tour players shoot career low rounds. Obviously, golfers don't set new records unless they possess tremendous skill. Also important in scoring low is a player's self-defined belief about what he or she thinks is possible.
Humans have much greater resources for success than they tend to use.
Golfers often stifle their own success with self-imposed psychological limits in the form of comfort zones, expectations or preconceptions about what is a good score. If you examine the psychological makeup of history's greatest golfers, those who have broken long-standing records, you would find that they had the ability to rise above their expectations and break records that were considered beyond reach. Golfers such as Sam Snead , Jack Nicklaus and Ben Hogan were able to buffer themselves against the negative expectations of others. Many of the golfers who are trying to earn their way onto one of the professional golf tours limit themselves with preconceptions and expectations about what is and what is not possible, which forms their personal comfort zones. Positive and negative expectations are the root of self-sabotage in golf.
