Positive Golf Kudos

This week, our Positive Golf Kudos go to both Tiger Woods and Rocco Mediate for their splendid display of great golf, both mental and physical, at the U.S. Open. Woods and Mediate each maintained an impressive and non-wavering determination to stay-the-course, despite circumstances that could potentially distract and veer them away from the situation at hand - Tiger, with a knee that kept "reminding" him it wasn't healed, and Mediate, who was faced with what most would call the world's most daunting opponent. Each expemplified a Positive Golf approach in their own unique way. Tiger, with his incredible resolve and supreme concentration, topped off with a classy, "That was a good fight," to Mediate after it was all over. And Mediate, who fearlessly rolled with the punches and kept focusing on the task at hand and absolutely enjoyed every minute of the experience. And finally, when it was all over, after losing to Tiger on the first playoff hole, still looking at the event with a positive perspective saying, "I can't really complain. I did my best," with a genuine smile and sincerity. It was a great day for each of them, a great day for the fans, and a great day for golf. And both Tiger and Mediate serve as great examples of the Positive Golf approach for other golfers who play once a day, once a week, or once a summer.

Here's to great golf!
