Under Par but Under-appreciated

     Sports such as football and basketball attract thousands of fans, and play under intense pressure. Others require great physical strength, like wrestling and weightlifting. Though golfers do not need great strength or physical endurance,they require consistency and mental toughness. A consistent swing combines distance and accuracy For developing players, such as Poly’s team, finding the regularity from match to match is critical. Often times, players will have a great round of golf in one game, and flop in the next.As legendary golfer Arnold Palmer said, “Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated; it satisfies the soul and frustrates the intellect. It is at the same time rewarding and

maddening.” So while golf does not have the adrenaline-pumping action of other sports, it is still a sport of focus, and should not be underestimated as not demanding or easy.
