For fellow golf fans, you may have experienced the same feelings of wonder I did when Phil Mickleson lifted the USPGA trophy last weekend.

In a recent podcast, Ed Mylett, relayed a question from his son who is currently playing college golf. ‘What’s the difference between the 50th ranked player in the world, and the first ranked player in the world?’

Mickleson immediately began describing an example of how he told a young amateur player of a drill he used to practice to improve his short putting: ‘Make 100 three footers in a row’.

Mickleson checked back in on the amateur a few weeks later to ask him how the progress was, to which the amateur responded: ‘Ah it was okay, I kind of made it to maybe around 50ish and stopped.’
