Dr. Izzy Justice noted how, unlike other sports, golf provides an organic timeout between each shot.
This is ample time for your mind to analyze and judge your previous shot, your current score, and your position in the game.
Whether consciously aware of it or not, by the time you reach the 12th hole, your subconscious is fully engaged and your baseline EEG might be significantly higher than when you started.
This heightened state can compromise your neuromuscular coordination, and it's a fascinating insight into how the mind can influence the game.
