Better Golf Daily: The Game Series - Choking for Two

Better Golf Academy: Strategy to Awesome Golf ·

2026/10/02

Some of the best soccer players in the world react to the referee's whistle almost as fast as Usain Bolt reacts to a starting gun. That stat stuck with me, because I'm pretty sure I do the exact same thing over a big putt when my partner's counting on me. This is the finale of our team golf series, and it's about the kind of pressure you only feel when someone else is on the line with you. I'll give you a simple way to handle it next time it shows up, and we'll bring the whole series together.

Better Golf Academy: Strategy to Awesome Golf ·

2026/10/01

Some researchers at Berkeley spent a season counting high fives in the NBA, and what they found actually predicted which teams would play better. I laughed when I first read it, and then I realized it explains a lot about my own bad partner habits. I'll also take you to the final hole of Saturday's last match at the Presidents Cup, where two teammates pulled off a pretty great finish. Then I'll share the five things great partners do after a bad shot, and the three things most of us do instead.

The best golfer in the world has an alternate-shot record that looks like a typo. And on Friday at the Presidents Cup, the whole format went sideways for the Americans in a way I've honestly never seen before. I'll explain what Olympic relay swimmers have to do with it, and why the usual way of thinking about alternate shot might be backward. Then I'll give you four things to do before and during the round that are basically free strokes.

There's one swing I only ever make in a best ball, and it's usually the best swing I make all day. That tells me something about my golf that I didn't really want to hear, and I think it's true for most of us. I'll take you to a wild moment from Saturday at the Presidents Cup and break down the simple math of best ball in plain English. Then I'll give you a five-second conversation to have with your partner before every hole.

There's a swing I hit in almost every scramble I've ever played, and I'm not proud of it. It happens right after somebody else already hit a great one, and it turns out a French engineer with a rope explained exactly why more than a hundred years ago. This kicks off The Team Game, a brand new series on team golf, inspired by a weekend of watching the Presidents Cup. I'll share the one simple habit that shuts this problem off, and it'll change how your team plays the greens.

Better Golf Academy: Strategy to Awesome Golf ·

2026/09/25

Two golfers start at the same level, same goals, practically the same handicap. A year later, one of them is a completely different player, and the other is standing in the exact same spot. The difference wasn't talent, and it wasn't effort, it came down to one mechanism running quietly underneath everything they did. This is the finale of the Atomic Habits series, and instead of just recapping four episodes, I'm building one real golf habit with you, live, using everything we've covered, the kind

A hospital cafeteria changed nothing except where the water bottles were sitting, and soda sales dropped over eleven percent in three months. Nobody's willpower changed. Just what was easiest to reach. Part four of the Atomic Habits series gets practical, into habit stacking and redesigning your own environment so getting yourself to actually practice stops depending on how motivated you feel that day.

There's an ice cube sitting in a room that's slowly heating up, one degree at a time, and for a long stretch, absolutely nothing happens. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, it melts. That's not really about ice. Part three of the Atomic Habits series gets into what James Clear calls the Plateau of Latent Potential, and why the exact moment most people quit a new habit is usually right before it was about to work.

Two golfers get asked about practicing before a big tournament. One says he's trying to practice more. The other just says that's what he does on Tuesdays. Same intention, completely different outcome, and James Clear's got a pretty good explanation for why. Part two of the Atomic Habits series gets into identity-based habits, the three layers of real change, and why the golfer who actually sticks with practice isn't relying on willpower at all.

A fifteen-year-old gets hit square in the face with a baseball bat, ends up in a medically induced coma, and gets cut from his high school team a year later trying to come back. Six years after that, he's a college team captain and a national Academic All-American. The habits that got him there are the whole reason a certain book exists. This is episode one of a brand new five-part series based on James Clear's Atomic Habits, and I'm opening with the story he opens the book with, plus the math

Five episodes of looking backward would be a pretty rough way to spend a week, so today I'm telling you what we should actually do with all of it. The finale of Golf Needs a Village pulls the missing path, the missing mentor, and the doors I didn't knock on into what I built because of them, and leaves you with one real thing to do this week, wherever you're starting from.

This is the episode in the series I've had the hardest time figuring out how to talk about, because it's the one that's actually on me, not on my circumstances. Episode four of Golf Needs a Village gets into real research on regret showing that the doors we never knock on hurt worse over time than the ones that slam in our face, and one door I want you to go knock on this week.

There's one image from my childhood I keep coming back to while building this series, and it's not dramatic, it's a school van. Someone drove the van to away games every week, faithfully. But that was the whole job. Episode three of Golf Needs a Village gets into Emmy Werner's famous decades-long study on resilient kids, the one finding that shows up again and again, and why the difference between a ride and a mentor turned out to matter more than almost anything else in my own story.

I always assumed I started golf too late, and for years that assumption just sat there unquestioned. Then I found the actual research on how long this game takes to develop, and it wrecked that assumption completely. Episode two of Golf Needs a Village gets into a real study showing golf is a twenty-plus year developmental sport, not a ten-year one, plus the Olympic research on what actually separates medalists from everyone else, and what it means for the time you think you've already lost.

Two weeks ago I ended up in an ambulance with a hundred percent blocked artery, and it's the real reason I'm finally telling this story. Episode one of a five-part series turns the mic on myself, why college golf never became a real option growing up, using Tony Finau's immigrant, garage-built beginning as the mirror, and why I decided not to sit on any of this any longer.

Imagine finishing eighteen holes with your hands feeling just as calm and soft on the last tee as they did on the first. That's not a fantasy, it's an actual trainable skill. This is the finale of the Golf Grip Pressure Series, and I'm handing you four real drills, no golf club required for the first one, to actually build soft hands permanently, plus the bigger idea tying the whole series together: most swing problems are secretly tension problems.

Ever make a smooth backswing and then completely lose it on the way down for no reason you can point to? There's a real, physical reason, and it's not your swing plane. Episode four of the Golf Grip Pressure Series gets into how grip pressure actually spikes at the top of your backswing without you noticing, why that spike is the real cause behind casting and early release, and a simple pause drill that lets you feel it coming before it costs you a shot.

Back in episode one, I promised we'd actually settle the lead-hand-versus-trail-hand debate that got this series made. It turns out real data on tour pros flips a piece of popular advice most golfers have heard. Episode three of the Golf Grip Pressure Series resolves the hand dominance question using real motion-capture research, keeps the Fred Couples soft-grip story, and gives you the actual thing to check for on your next chip or putt instead of picking a side.

I just finished watching Josh Hill sink a three-foot putt to win the Walker Cup for Great Britain and Ireland, and while everyone else was watching the moment, I was watching his hands. Episode two of the Golf Grip Pressure Series uses that putt as the case study for Sian Beilock's research on why skilled performers choke, Debbie Crews' work measuring grip tension directly on golfers, and the one-word cue that can interrupt the spiral before you even start your stroke.

I went looking for one clean answer on grip pressure for this series and instead found an actual argument playing out across golf instruction, including real disagreement over something specific: which hand is supposed to be doing more of the gripping. Episode one of the Golf Grip Pressure Series opens with the questions that actually got this series made, plus a real motion-capture study on tour pros vs. amateurs that flips a common assumption about the short game.
