Nothing changes for me mentally. I know what I have put into my game and I know what I will get out of it. No amount of mental preparedness will supersede your skill level at the time you play.
When on the course I play one shot at a time, I never get a head of myself and don't worry about my opponent. He or she will play their game and there nothing I can do to control that.
by treating each round the same I am able to stay even and not get to worked up. Extreme highs and lows can kill a match and I know most will be amped for the first 4 or 5 holes. Once they calm down, I have taken the lead and won't give it back because of steady play and emotions.
