Why Golf Doesn’t Get Easier (Even When You Get Better) | Keeks | Part 2

What if getting better at golf doesn’t actually make the game easier… it just gives you a new challenge to chase? Breaking 90 should feel like a big breakthrough… so why does it immediately become the start of the next challenge? In Part 2 of our conversation with Keeks Golf, we dive into the mental side of golf improvement and discover that every golfer—regardless of handicap—is fighting a different version of the same battle. Fresh from breaking 90, Keeks shares why she’s already chasing 85, opens up about feeling like an imposter at the legendary TPC Sawgrass, and explains why one of the greatest golfing experiences of her life wasn’t quite what she’d imagined. Meanwhile, Chris reveals the unexpected pressure of chasing scratch golf and how the pursuit of lower scores can sometimes make the game less enjoyable, while Dave reflects on why improving one part of your game simply exposes the next weakness to work on. If you’ve ever felt nervous on the first tee, wondered whether you really belonged on a dream golf course, or found yourself obsessing over your score instead of enjoying the game, this episode is for you.

Why High Expectations Are Ruining Your Golf | Jared Tendler Psychoanalyses a Near-Scratch Golfer (Part 2)

"When you say high standard, I think expectation. And expectations are hidden guarantees." — Jared Tendler Last week, Jared Tendler psychoanalysed Dave's golf game and uncovered some uncomfortable truths about confidence, insecurity, self-worth and performance. This week, it's Chris's turn. On paper, Chris is the golfer most amateurs aspire to become. A low handicap player capable of shooting under par and pushing towards scratch golf. But Jared quickly uncovers a different challenge entirely: Perfectionism. High expectations. And a mindset that's quietly making improvement harder, not easier. Why do so many good golfers struggle to enjoy the game? Why do high standards sometimes hurt performance instead of helping it? And how can ambitious golfers pursue improvement without becoming trapped by unrealistic expectations?

Golf Exposed My Biggest Insecurity | Jared Tendler Psychoanalyses My Mental Game (Part 1)

“You’re hitting that golf shot looking to feel competent. If you don’t, you get to go into this hellscape of not really knowing who you are or what matters.” — Jared Tendler What happens when one of the world’s leading mental game coaches starts analysing your golf game in real time? In this special two-part conversation, renowned golf mental game coach Jared Tendler joins How Low Can You Go? and quickly takes the discussion somewhere neither of us expected. Rather than talking about confidence, pressure and performance in the abstract, Jared turns his attention to Dave’s golf game and uncovers the hidden beliefs, fears and insecurities that may be driving his struggles on the course. Why can someone who feels confident in most areas of life still feel embarrassment, frustration and even despair on the golf course? This episode covers golf psychology, confidence, performance anxiety, fear of failure, self-worth, improvement mindset and the mental game.
