Long-Term
2009-11-26 Just a few thoughts on this winter...
I saw some of you asked why I'm not going to play in South Africa before christmas to try to get in to top-50 in the world by the end of the year (I'm currently 53rd) to be directly qualified for The Masters Tournament at Augusta in April. The reasons I will not be going are:
- There are not many world ranking points in the South African tournaments, so I would have to finish really high to get into the top-50.
- If I'm going I want to practice before the tournaments somewhere warmer than Sweden and that will take some days off my resting and working out schedule.
- I need these 8 weeks off to get enough time to recover mentally from a long season of golf and to get enough time to do proper working out in the weight room and be fit for the next season.
- Also, the things I want to work on in my technique takes a lot of time and now is a great time to work hard at it when I don't have to think about scoring the next day.
- If I play well in the beginning of the year, I can still qualify for The Masters Tournament.
So all reasons combined made me think off long-term improvement instead of chasing one tournament which feels more short-term to me. I have always worked for long-term improvement and sticking to it.
Get back soon!
