Yeah, to me, there is so much talent in the top 100, but what keeps most of them from breaking through is their head. It seems like in golf you have a no name winning a tournament every week.

I think this makes another argument for golf. Greats in tennis win so often because they are physically better. Tiger Woods has 10x the physical talent as Bo Van Pelt but they went right down to the final holes yesterday.

Which proves how much of a mental game golf is IMO. The top players in the world miss the cut all the time because they cannot maintain focus throughout a round.
