## Resource

In this episode of the Tour Coach Podcast, we dive deep into the "inner game" of golf with renowned sports psychology consultant Dr. Greg Cartin. Whether you are a professional on tour or a weekend warrior, the mental approach to the game is what separates consistency from frustration. Greg shares his insights on how to manage expectations, stay present over the ball, and develop a routine that holds up under pressure. In this episode, we cover: • Why your practice doesn't always translate to the course. • How to handle "big moment" anxiety. • The difference between a technical mindset and a performance mindset.
