Together, we break down the mental collapse Rory McIlroy experienced at Augusta, why players in the lead shift from offensive to defensive mindsets, and how to overcome the urge to “protect” a lead that doesn’t actually exist.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: You don’t “have” the lead — you only have your next shot. Treat each one with the same intention.Offense wins in golf. Shifting to “protect” a score leads to tentative swings and poor decisions.Commitment is clarity. A vague shot plan leads to vague swings. Clear images = clear results.Most bad shots stem from mental interference, not swing flaws — especially under pressure.Return to presence by letting go. Your body is always here. It’s your mind that time travels.“Love the way it leaves.” Focus on your process, not the outcome.Unconditional confidence means trusting your skills even when results aren't there yet. Key Quotes: “You’re not holding the lead. You’re just holding onto an idea that doesn’t exist yet.”“Golfers say, ‘If I can just par in…’ — that’s when the mind shifts into protection mode and everything tightens.”“A vague image produces a vague swing. Clarity of image is clarity of action.”“If you’re not present on 15, your body’s already in the bar on 19.”“You never calm up. You calm down. So stop trying to be up-tight and start getting down-settled.”“Focus on loving the way it leaves. That’s all you can control.”“When you're out of your own way, your true skill level shows up.” Time Stamps: 00:00: Rory McIlroy's Performance at the Masters09:07: The Defensive Mindset in Golf14:01: Maintaining an Offensive Mindset19:00: Being Present in the Moment23:09: Caveman Lessons: The Roots of Fear and Awareness26:04: The PAR Approach: Preparation, Action, and Response30:20: Focusing on Process Over Outcome32:33: Understanding Unconditional Confidence35:15: Cultivating Unconditional Confidence38:41: Practicing Mindfulness Off the Course42:30: Common Misconceptions About Mindfulness44:32: The Billboard Message: ...
