Welcome to The Golfing Mind, the podcast that explores the psychology of golf and the mental habits that separate great players from the rest. Every golfer, from club amateur to major champion, knows what it feels like to lose confidence. One week, the swing feels effortless, the next it’s as if you’ve forgotten how to play. It’s a lonely, frustrating place — but it’s also part of the game. What matters isn’t avoiding slumps, it’s knowing how to recover from them. In today’s episode, we’re looking at how to rebuild self-belief when your confidence has faded. We’ll explore the mental traps that make slumps worse, practical steps to restore trust in your swing, and how great players — from Rory McIlroy to Rickie Fowler — found their way back after setbacks. Confidence isn’t a mysterious gift reserved for the lucky few. It’s something you can rebuild, step by step, with the right mindset and habits. So if you’ve ever stood over the ball thinking, “What happened to my game?”, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about how to rediscover your belief — and your best golf. https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
