Golf Entered 2023.10.15 18:26 Modified 2023.10.16 00:17 Paper A31 Jo Hee-chan’s Popcorn Plays the sound of a ball entering the hole cup to give psychological stability to sports players Jack Nicklaus GC in Songdo, Incheon, where the Korea Professional Golf (KPGA) Korean Tour Genesis Championship was held. . In the restrooms used by the players during the competition, ‘ground’ and ‘cling’ sounds were heard repeatedly at regular intervals. This was played by the golf course at the request of Genesis, the organizer. It is said that Genesis produces its own music and plays it to players every year. A Genesis official explained, “We recorded the sound the ball made when it hit the sweet spot and the sound it made when it entered the hole cup. We tried to help the players by subtly making them hear positive sound effects.” This attempt was really helpful. Will this work? In fact, ‘positive psychology’ is a widely used method in sports psychology. Green Coaching Solution CEO Jeong Green, who is the mental coach of famous players such as Lee Kyung-hoon, who won twice on the PGA Tour, advises players to overcome unstable psychological states by emphasizing ‘positive framing’. He explained, “Athletes who play on the professional stage already have a lot of good materials, but for these players, ‘anxiety’ causes them to use good materials negatively.” The player who most effectively used ‘positive psychology’ in golf is known to be Jack Nicklaus (83, USA), who has the most wins (18 wins) in men’s golf major championships. Nicklaus is a golfer who enjoys psychological warfare, such as deliberately looking at the putting line for a long time, to shake up opponents and make them collapse through ‘mental battles’. Nicklaus also used a method of escaping negative thoughts by distorting memories. According to foreign media, Nicklaus claimed in a university lecture, “I have never missed a 3-foot (approximately 1 meter) putt, and I never made a 3-putt in the last tournament,” but was criticized by an audience member. He once more denied the audience’s point, saying, “I’ve never done that.” In fact, Nicklaus missed a 3-foot putt in the previous tournament. But that didn’t happen in Nicklaus’ mind anymore. Sports psychologist Bob Rotella, who was present at the lecture at the time, said, “Champions like Nicklaus do not confine themselves to negative experiences.” Reporter Hee-chan Cho [email protected]
