"My last thought before I take the club away isn't a thought at all. It's a picture, a visualization, a sensation. If I think of swinging slowly, my last thought isn't "swing slowly." It's an image of me swinging slowly."

Jack Nicklaus

"I like to stand behind the ball, facing the line of the putt, and visualising the outcome in my mind’s eye. I like to ‘see’ the ball roll into the cup"

Annika Sorenstam

Strategy Elicitation

Jack Nicklaus described his visualisation in his mental movie this way; "I never hit a shot, even in practice, without having a very sharp, in-focus picture of it in my head.

It's like a colour movie. First I 'see' the ball where I want it to finish, nice and white and sitting up high on the bright green grass.

Strategy Elicitation

Strategy ElicitationThen the scene quickly changes, and I 'see' the ball going there: its path,trajectory, and shape, even itsbehaviour on landing. Then there's asort of fade-out, and the next sceneshows me making the kind of swingthat will turn the previous images intoreality.

Only at the end of this short,private Hollywood spectacular do Iselect a club and step up to the ball."

Mental Rehearsal – Visualisation

The greatest golfers will have played every hole on the course countless times through visualisation. They will know the best course of action to take under every set of circumstances - no shot they play on the day will cause a surprise (not to them anyway!), allowing them to feel in total control of every aspect of their performance.

Mental Rehearsal – Visualisation

They will not only have seen They will not only have seen every shot in their mind’s-eye, every shot in their mind’s-eye, they will have felt every tiny they will have felt every tiny detail of their body position detail of their body position through every swing they through every swing they take, and they will have heard take, and they will have heard the sound of the ball as it rolls the sound of the ball as it rolls into the cup each time.into the cup each time.
