Tournament Tip from PRO

[dzularmor]

Just to share tips for tournament golf game (or when it involves quite a stake) that I read somewhere in a Golf Magazine some time ago. Some of the tips are used by Tiger himsel:

1.  Never compliment your opponent when he drives wonderfully or hit other good shots/putts. Just make donno. Compliment boost his moral and his moods. In turn he will keep on playing better throughout. He needs your support to beat you.
2.  Do not help him look for his potential lost ball - one, it is tiring you and two, this will save him penalty strokes.
3.  When he talks, pretend that you are not listening. (Tiger does this all the time). Just make donno also.
4.  Put your golf bag on the right side and be the cart passenger all the time except when necessary only. Driving golf cart affects your tempo, emotions and it tires you as well.
5.  Walk where possible as getting in and out of golf cart is also tiring and affects your tempo.
6.  Play opposite to your opponent's tempo. Speed up if he plays slowly and slow down if he is the fast type. (Tiger is good at this and he does this every time).
7.  "De-loft" his mood by saying something like "did you change your swing recently?, you shank/pull a lot". You will win the next hole or more coz he will keep on thinking about his swing. he he.
 
Well, those are a few that I can recall.  If any of us in this forum happens to bump into me in the same flight  in any corporate tournament, sorry if I have to apply some of the above.

Regards and cheers

Hehehe!!! Good tips!!!  .....

Tapi kalau boley jgn lah apply benda ni semua kat kitaorg nya G2Gs or any events organised by us... Kat KakiGolf kitaorg ni semua kaki hepi2!!! Winning isn't everything ... & Its not all about winning ... Unless of course, one is competing in an actual PRO event-lah, tu different story kot!!! 

Being a good golfer, I personally think entails more than just getting good scores and winning prizes (or bets for that matter) ... Good etiquette is one ... & good sportsmanship is another. For me, golf is about building good relationships, network building and camaraderie!!! But then again, this is my personal opinion ...

Nasib baik ada 'escape clause'. 

 +1 MFG.

Kat ofis dah lah lawan tender, buang harga lah, telan lagi diskaun lah etc.
The last thing I need on the course is another four hours of 'stare down' or 'dare'.
Mayb I'm just an ayam who has not felt true sense 'competitiveness'.
Though, thank you for being frank about it. That, is a gentleman

  kalau takdak org tolong carikan, aku cari sendiri-sendiri, dari zohor sampai isya' la game baru habih (every hole dok cari bola; atas fairway pun cari lagi!!). game kau org la yg akan koyak, aku okay punya

dzulamor saja ja tu, bagi tip yg style Tiger Woods punya. Style dia sendiri tak macam tu. org askar, sedangkan negeri dia sanggup jaga, nyawa sanggup gadai, takkan bola flightmate dia tak cari, buggy dia tak mau bawak.

lagipun, kalau dia betoi2 follow TW's style, dzulamour ni dah tak mau masuk forum lagi dah, dan dia pun akan keluaqkan statement kat website dia "saya berenti sekejap dari main golf ni sementara kecederaan yg saya alami dek kena sebat dgn 7-iron oleh isteri saya tu kembali sembuh dan parutnya hilang"

For me...golf is game that need full focus from ourselves...When playing we just look to yr friend or opponent, don't say anything...just smile...

2morow will be playing in Club medal tournament...hope can follow a few of the tips given...

thanks to bro dzularmor for the sharing... btw for the t'ment PGA, EPGA, Asian tour, dan yg sewaktu dgnnyer mmg digalakkan sgt2 utk meniru gaya dan aksi tips dr TW tu... and 1 more things if u r really serious golfer n looking forward to play for the Pro t'ment pn mmg digalakkan meniru aksi2 tersebut.. but kalau kita setakat main t'ment yg ada kt m'sia ni contohnyer monthly medal,astro, pharmathon, charity ke, main dgn kngkwn ke i dun think so kita kene apply cara mcm tu... sbbnye nnti tkt kngkwn xnk main dgn kita lg, and bak kata boss saya Mr MFG tu ada benarnye (oppurtunity n good prospect for bisness purposes) and lg satu kita nk main tuk hepi2 disamping tuk mengeratkan lg silaturrahim.. dgn itu nescaya kngkwn lg akan suka main dgn kita lg...

    Tapi pendapat masing2 lah kan, terpulang pd individu itu sendiri nk menentukan corak permainannyer.. bg saya pula, kalau setakat main dgn kgkwn atau t'ment biasa2 ni saya lebih suka kepada friendly game, but different think bila saya main tuk t'ment yg besar2 contohnya Master t'ment ke atau state open..

wassallam...
