After watching the conclusion of the Ladies British Open, I had an observation that is not news to any good tournament player – but something that every competitor should always remember. Never give up!
Stacy Lewis was three shots behind Na Yeon Choi with five holes to go, but kept her cool, birdied three of the last four holes including the seventeenth (super difficult) and eighteenth, and finished with a two shot victory – very similar to what Phil Mickelson did in the Men’s Open.
Significant swings of position in medal play events can happen both quickly and unexpectedly. The shot you carelessly throw away (or not), when you think all hope is gone, can often make the difference between a win or a loss. Every shot, on every hole, adds one more to your total score. Tiger never appears to hit a shot that fails to get his full attention and effort, and neither did Jack.
When you’re coming down the stretch and you think you hear the “fat lady” singing – be certain it’s not just a whine in the back of your own head – and keep trying! Who knows – you might really surprise yourself and go home with a nice trophy and a pocket full of cash!!!
