Synopsis
But this book is not all about golf. When the pressure is on, Gary knows what it takes to be a success, and he had channelled this knowledge into building his business empire. In No Fear, Gary explains how he became a champion and what it takes to win in professional golf - but he also explains how learning to cope in high-pressure situations can help anyone. Drawing on the most pressure-packed experiences from his eighteen major victories, Gary reveals how he managed to succeed when things were at their most tense. If you want to do better in the boardroom, hone your business skills or succeed in your next job interview, Gary's advice will help. This personal glimpse into the mind of a champion offers invaluable lessons for anyone who has to face pressure - and today, that is all of us. With a foreword by bestselling author Dr Bob Rotella and dozens of photographs and illustrations from Gary's personal collection, No Fear is a rare glimpse into the mind of a champion.
