Furyk shot 75, 68, 74, and 58.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furyk struggled to make the cut the first two days, but lit up the par 70 course on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He stated that you are never far from playing well no matter how bad your swing feels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIt&#8217;s kind of a reminder no matter how bad you feel with your swing, you&#8217;re never that far away, or no matter how good you feel you&#8217;re probably not that far away from playing poorly, as well,&#8221;<\/em> said Furyk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI went out yesterday [Saturday] and really didn&#8217;t have command of the golf ball, and turned around and played pretty much a flawless round of golf today.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Going low<\/strong> is always a challenge for golfers even on the PGA Tour. When you are &#8220;throwing a no-hitter,&#8221; it becomes harder and harder to not think about it as the game goes on&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most golfers I work with have a <strong>comfort<\/strong> <strong>zone<\/strong> (scoring range) they feel comfortable with. This keeps them stuck from breaking scoring barriers. When they go low, it\u2019s hard to not hit the breaks and protect the score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In protection mode, you have a <strong>mental<\/strong> battle with yourself about trying to make more birdies and trying not to make mistakes&#8211;which causes you to play tentatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When did Furyk start thinking about shooting 58 or less?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThe mental battle really started after 12. Now I&#8217;ve got it 11-under par. I&#8217;ve got it in the 50s, and kind of the sky&#8217;s the limit,\u201d <\/em>said Furyk<em>. \u201cSo fighting really trying to stay out of the way, stay <strong>aggressive<\/strong>, not get conservative, not &#8212; and really not strategy-wise, but it&#8217;s easy in that situation to make a very conservative swing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The challenge is to continue to play <strong>aggressive<\/strong> when you are going low. The mind wants to get in the clubhouse fast and post a score and thus you play more conservative and try to not make bogeys, which leads to bogeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key is to play <strong>smart<\/strong>, but continue to make an <strong>aggressive<\/strong> swing. Other golfers have told me the same thing&#8230; You don\u2019t want to fire at every pin, but still make a committed swing, not tentative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI want to take a smart route or try &#8212; not always trying to hit it this far. There&#8217;s pins where you&#8217;re going to play 15 feet left or right of the pin, but then you have to make an aggressive swing to get there, and I was able to do that for most of the day.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mental_Keys_to_Going_Low\"><\/span>Mental Keys to Going Low:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Plan A is to not obsess about your score and how well you are playing in the round. The moment you think you are scoring well, you can jerk yourself out of the zone and protect your score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Plan B is to continue to play aggressive. Pick smart targets, but focus on the target, not the trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Challenge yourself to finish strong, such as to have three more birdie chances on the last four holes. Think birdie chance instead of trying to avoid bogies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.peaksports.com\/golfers-mental-edge-cd-program\/\"><strong>Uncover some of my mental game strategies for golf here!<\/strong><\/a><\/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?
