Synopsis

Bob Rotella is a golf coach who has set out to help golfers revolutionize their mental habits. In this book, he explains his method of mental game management that has helped golfers attain their goals. Rotella's maxims include: play every significant round of golf with a game plan; accept the results of any shot, no matter how bad, and go on to the next one; select the shot you know you can hit, not the shot Arnold Palmer would hit; choking occurs when golfers let anger, fear, or some other extraneous factor distract them before a shot.

Media Reviews
Pat Bradley Bob Rotella helped me to be my own best friend and to get to the next level of my career.
Tom Kite from the foreword In the first twelve years of my life on the PGA Tour, I had established myself as a pretty decent player, but had only won five official tournaments. In the ten years since meeting Doc, I have won fourteen tournaments, played on the Ryder Cup team, and won my first major, the U.S. Open. To say that I think Doc has helped make me a better player would be an understatement.
Nick Price Bob Rotella's knowledge and practical approach to psychology have been an enormous help to me. He has an uncanny knack of being able to turn the most complicated situation into a simple one.
Brad Faxon I was at a point where I was taking golf so seriously that I wasn't enjoying it any more. Bob Rotella taught me to throw away doubt and fear, and as a result I am enjoying golf, learning more, and playing better.
