Strengthen your focus and concentration with this game-within-a-game tactic! Pia Nilsson (Annika Sorenstam's mental coach) and Lynn Marriott's (Golf Digest Top-50 instructor) golf tips will keep you "in the moment"! Both are co-founders of "Vision 54", a tutelage that all golfers are capable of shooting a birdie on every hole!

Phil Mickelson has a tendency to get into trouble (remember his U.S. Open collapse?) He also has many shots in his bag to get him back onto the fairway. We discuss the punch-out with help from Golf Digest teaching professional Rick Smith who, I believe, has seen Mickelson practice this maneuver many times! ;D

Finally we give you Bill Clinton's view on golf in our podcast and a video of him swinging the golf club. Mulligan anyone?

I found myself searching for a reason why my self-assurance increased this past week after crushing opponents during a round of golf. The "dean of mental coaching", Dr. Bob Rotella, seemed to offer up the closest ideas as to my improved cerebral performance.

After his 200th performance at this week's WGC-American Express Championship, we discuss what would make Tiger Woods retire from golf as well as a contrasting quote from Vijay Singh.

"The Rules of Golf plainly spoken" helps the golfer whose ball finds an unplayable lie.
