Why I Love Playing Golf
Golf is simple to understand but tough to master, and that's what makes it exciting. Every swing is a new challenge, and every game feels like new. All of it keeps me on my toes and sharpens my mental toughness.
Combining stillness and focus, golf also provides a sense of calm that's difficult to find elsewhere. I can always rely on a few rounds to help bring me back to centre.
Golf is my escape. When I'm on the course, all my stresses fade away. It's just me, the open green and the sounds of nature.
I'm at peace, and that's why I keep coming back. It’s non-negotiable “me” time that allows me to keep smashing life and having fun.
It's simple, tried and true, and I think it's vital that we all find our own reliable escapes.
Whether it's golf, a swim, getting lost in a great book, journaling, drawing, walks in nature or playing an instrument, find joy in a pastime you're passionate about.
It will always bring you back to centre field.
