Just have fun.”

“When he was younger, he would try to push himself too hard, and I told him, ‘Just keep playing your game. If you shoot 68 and lose, give credit to the other player. But if you shoot 68 playing your game all the time, that’s usually going to beat someone who occasionally shoots 62. Trust your game.’”
