The Pressure Trap: Why your best golf disappears under pressure. You’re standing over a three-foot putt. You’ve holed hundreds like it before. But this one matters. Suddenly, your hands feel different, your mind starts racing, and a putt you could normally make with your eyes closed becomes an ordeal. You miss — and spend the next three holes thinking about it. Sound familiar? The question is, why does our golf often fall apart precisely when we need it most? And more importantly, what can we do about it? In this episode of The Golfing Mind, we explore the psychology of performing under pressure. Drawing on sports psychology research, we look at what happens to our bodies, attention and decision-making when the stakes rise — and why trying harder can sometimes make things worse. But understanding the problem is only half the battle. I’ll share three practical mental-game techniques you can take straight onto the course: how to focus on your target rather than obsess over your technique, how to develop a pre-shot routine that helps you commit with confidence, and how to reset mentally after a bad shot instead of allowing one mistake to ruin the next. Because you may not be able to control every shot you hit — but you can learn to control how you think, respond and play. SPECIAL OFFER: SILENT MIND GOLF ONLINE $49.
