也是 Ken Venturi 的访谈摘录中的一段:
“The difference between a good player and a bad player is the sequence of
their thinking. Say you're playing a hole with water on the right. The good
player sees the water and acknowledges it. He immediately turns positive and
thinks about where he wants the ball to go. His mind doesn't go back the
the water. The poor player is just the opposite. He sees where he wants the
ball to go, but his last thought is of the water. The bad outcome becomes a
self-fulfilling prophecy. Always make your last thought a positive one. "
这段话大概不止适用于高尔夫,也适用于人生中很多其他的事情。不过这个不在本版的
讨论范围内。
就说打高尔夫,很多时候明明不应该打入水中或障碍区的球,偏偏就打进去了。这个不
是或者至少不完全是技术上的问题,更是心理上的问题。所以练习场是练不出真正的高
手的,高手必须是身经百战,哪怕是业余的小赌怡情,也很重要。
