Natalie Gulbis started playing golf when she was 4 years old and worked her way to LPGA tour. When asked about focus she said, “Focus is 80 percent of the game. Not just the ability to focus when things are going well but when things are going bad.” Gulbis credits Nancy Lopez for being a mentor to her and helping her focus, “when you have a bad day in a tournament you have to be able to focus on the positives of that day and use that to get ready for the next round.”

Verse: 

“How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience, would have achieved success?”

Elbert Hubbard

Action Point:
