The Hidden Meaning Behind Golf's Most Popular Phrase | Mind Games | Golf Digest

There is a reason so many golfers revert to the same cliche, and it’s because focusing on “one shot at a time” is the key to making a complicated game simple. At every level of the game, the best way to manage against distractions in golf is to only focus on what’s right in front of you. In the latest episode of Mind Games, Sam Weinman talks to top players, coaches, sports psychologists, and caddies to explain what’s really behind those simple words, and how it relays to another performance concept of emphasizing process goals over outcome goals. Whether you're trying to win the Masters or just break 90 for the first time, there are ways to lock in on only what you can control on the course, and to weather challenges as they arise.
