Better Golf Daily: Seven Misses

One of the greatest golfers who ever lived hit ugly shots all day long — and won anyway, more than almost anyone in history. In this one I get into his strange little secret, and why the player across from him, who swung it far more beautifully, kept losing to him. It comes down to a number Walter Hagen carried onto the first tee every single round, and what happened the moment a bad shot showed up. I'll show you how to borrow that same number for your own game this week — and why expecting your worst shots, on purpose, might be the most freeing thing you ever do on a golf course.
