I love your series, very interesting similarities! Myself and my colleagues are interested in benchmarking golfers mental abilities against those professional golfers. This is to show their strengths and weak areas and then try and help improve their mental game.

We’ve recently however completed a study looking at if the way people behave on the golf course reflects the way they behave off it. The key point is they do! People who are hotly competitive on the course are hotly competitive off the course. Those who set ambitious goals on the golf course, plan and then work to achieve those goals also acheive in other parts of their lives.

So far we’ve had ver 5000 golfers complete the benchmark assessment from all over the globe, soon we will have enough data to look at differences between golfers mental abilities between countries. Why does the US produce great mental playes even though the players swings may not be as good as their counterparts on other tours?

For your blog it would be interesting to see if traders as a group make mentally successful golfers? One to ponder anyway!

Thanks for writing your blog, enjoying it.
