The win this weekend earns him his tenth win of his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the post-round interview, we learn that Day is not immune to <strong>pressure<\/strong> and feeling nervous when in the lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even the top pros get <strong>nervous<\/strong>, no matter how long they\u2019ve been playing the game. Why would the top player in the world get nervous, you ask?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI was nervous starting the day. This is probably the most nervous I&#8217;ve been before a tournament round. I&#8217;m sitting there going: don&#8217;t choke &#8211; that would be the worst thing ever. Everyone would be talking about it. And things like that go through your mind, and they go through your mind out there on the front nine, and it did, it really went through my mind,\u201d<\/em> said Day after Sunday\u2019s round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He\u2019s obviously been blessed with talent. And finally, with the pressure to fulfill his great potential in golf, he\u2019s able to quiet the critics over the last few months on the PGA Tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_did_he_deal_with_the_pressure_of_leading_the_Players_Championship\"><\/span>How did he deal with the pressure of leading the Players Championship?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every player needs help from others \u2013 in the form of coaching or just players who have been in his place before. Day received a great tip from Tiger Woods that helped him win on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cYou know, you need to stay in your world and just <strong>focus<\/strong> on just getting it done and don&#8217;t think about anything else other than just hitting the shot,\u201d<\/em> Tiger said to Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though Day was nervous on the front nine, he was able to collect himself on the back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI didn&#8217;t play a great front nine, but once I got to 10, I kind of said to myself, you&#8217;re still in the game, you&#8217;ve still got the lead. You&#8217;re still in good shape. Just focus on hitting this next tee shot down the middle, which I did, and then when I got to the second shot, I just said, focus on hitting your shot onto the green, and I did that,\u201d<\/em> Day said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to focus only on the moment one shot a time. Easy to say, but hard to do when you are trying to win a golf tournament&#8211;and you are making bogeys on the front nine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It hasn\u2019t been a smooth path to success for Day. Talent alone will not guarantee success in golf. Knowing how you react under the gun and coping with this is a <strong>key<\/strong> to success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Day, you have to be able to fail at times, pick yourself back up, and <strong>learn from your mistakes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jason Day used his past failures to propel him to success. <em>\u201cI had to fail a lot to learn a lot about myself and learn a lot about my game to really kind of propel me forward to be in a position like this, and everything that I do today is going to have an effect on what I do in the future, as well.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even after earning the #1 ranking in the world, Day knows he can still <strong>continue to improve<\/strong> his game and do more in golf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cBecause it&#8217;s never enough. Winning is never enough, and I&#8217;ve got to try and do it as much as I can before my time is over. Just sticking to the process and working hard and then obviously learning from the failures that you have along the way. You always must learn, and I&#8217;m just glad to convert another one. I&#8217;m looking forward to plenty more of those, but right now I&#8217;m just trying.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, according to Day, success for him comes from learning and growing from past failures, never settling on his previous success, staying in the moment under pressure, and staying composed when you don\u2019t have your A game early in the round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peaksports.com\/golfers-mental-edge-cd-program\/\"><strong>The Golfer&#8217;s Mental Edge<\/strong><\/a> for more strategies to simplify your swing and to determine your ideal type of swing thought&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Golfers_Mental_Edge\"><\/span>Golfer&#8217;s Mental Edge<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.peaksports.com\/sports-psychology-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/golfers-mental-edge20.jpg\" alt=\"Golf Psychology CD\" class=\"wp-image-4169\" style=\"width:228px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s the <em>big sign<\/em> that <strong>your mental game is the weak link<\/strong> in your golf game?
