We always hear about how important confidence is in sports. If a major league batter gets in a slump his coaches tell him to “keep swinging”. Any great NBA star that is zero for five from the field keeps on shooting like he’s making everything. Every great player knows a great play is going to happen soon, if they don’t believe it, they won’t be there next year.
This is what confidence is about in sports. If your really good, you know it, Period, and you believe it! Your very existence is based on it. For PGA tour players, butterflies may or may not be a part of the first tee at the masters, but if they are present these guys deal with it. If your ego is too fragile you won’t last long.
So, young Patrick Reed says he is a top five player! During that interview he was serious. He wasn’t bragging. He believes. He convinced me that he is serious about winning. I think he will be a top five player.
Go get em Patrick.
