The THOMAS BLIZZARD story
Manage episode 454299233 series 3237136
Having tested himself in some big golf tournaments this year, England’s Thomas Blizzard, aged 18, has absorbed a lot. He is a serious player in the making. The challenges he faces are part of his learning curve. What makes him tick as a golfer.
He tells us: “Part of my condition of Autism makes social and high pressure scenarios extremely difficult to function in. With golf being a heavily mental game it often leads to my detriment as I can easily get frustrated over things when they don’t go as planned, and this will then lead to a knock-on effect for the holes to come.
“But I love the pressure that golf puts on you. You are the only person that can control the outcome and ultimately if you go out there, do the best you can, and someone's better than you on the day, then they're just better than you. In golf there is no hiding place.”
This resilient philosophy is leading to some fine performances and an intriguing story. Enjoy this with EDGA today.
