Golf is a mental sport every day. In times where technology allows us to achieve objectives with benevolence, the short game and pressure rise in the equation of success. Cam Davis. The golfer who exploded with victory in the Australian Open, his country, in 2017 and who is already a regular on the PGA Tour, returned to the path of victory in the same tournament that in 2021 had unpacked his figure when he won the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
Davis won by one stroke thanks to a birdie on the 17th hole to a group of golfers who were left with honey on their lips in a playoff: Ming Woo Lee, Davis Thompson, Aaron Rai and Akshay Bhatia, who three putts on the final hole prevented him from discussing the title with the Australian golfer. His shot from 5 meters touched the hole, but was thrown away, thus ruining his chances.
“It sucks, there’s no other way to put it,” Bhatia said. “Just a little nerves, honestly. I’m human,” he said, lamenting the second bogey he committed all week in the tournament held in Detroit.
Cameron, 29, thus ended several months of regrets. He missed cut after cut, did not add up to a decent position and in his attempt to explore everything he resorted to hypnosis. He started therapy 10 days ago and Davis maintains that he has found what he was looking for. “From where I was a couple of weeks ago to today, I am a completely different person,” said a golfer who has finally made the leap to the top 40 in the world after the required photos.
