In this episode of The Missing Links Golf Show, Steve and Andy break down two very different competition experiences—each packed with lessons that every golfer can relate to.

Steve kicks things off with his experience at The Bathurst Open, a weekend that didn’t go quite to plan on the scoreboard, but revealed plenty of positives. Despite a tough stretch, he stayed competitive, fought through the swings that weren’t quite cooperating, and found real momentum with a significantly improved putting performance in Round 2. It’s a raw conversation about managing expectations, dealing with frustration, and learning to take the wins even on the hard days.

Andy then shares a round of his own—one that started shaky before a single mental commitment flipped everything. After grinding through the front nine, he made the choice to swing freely, and the shift unlocked his game. His back nine became a lesson in trust, freedom, and letting go of the tension that quietly sabotages so many golfers.

Together, the boys dive into:

• The mindset needed to stay in the fight when your “A game” doesn’t show up
• Why small performance gains (like putting) matter more than most golfers think
• The mental trigger that helped Andy turn the round around
• How freedom, commitment, and acceptance can unlock better swings
• The value of learning from off-days, not just the highlight reels
• What everyday golfers can take from two competitive rounds with very different story arcs

If you’ve ever battled through a tough comp, struggled to find rhythm, or felt the magic of finally swinging free, this episode will hit home.

The boys receive some feedback on their previous episode, specifically regarding some possibly dodgy advice that could result in tournament disqualifications... Cue appropriate clarifications and retractions!

Steve then shares the news that he has registered for a 36 hole tournament this coming weekend and the weather forecast indicates that he might be in for a rough ride. So the conversation turns to how he might best prepare and what reasonable expectations he should place on his performance.

Andy shares some much needed good news in an update on his ongoing health concerns.

A question from one of the Pilgrims has caused the boys to reflect on their strategies to shoot lower scores. Whether your target is to break 100, 90, 80, Par or just to shoot you personal best, every golfer battles with the difficulty of closing out a good round. In this episode Steve and Andy unpack why that happens and what you can do about it to go your lowest.
