Sean, there has been a lot of good advice, I'll throw in my couple of cents.
Firstly, the round is still a long ways off and yet it has already reached monumental proportions in your mind. That means you are placing a lot of expectation upon yourself already.
All the advice is increasing your expectations, you may find yourself saying 'I have prepared so well, why aren't I winning?'
Ideally you want to have a very neutral mindset when you are starting off. This is your first medal so you should have low expectations. Shooting your handicap will be a hell of an effort, especially if you've never played the course previously.
Accept that you will have some very bad shots on the day and when (if) they arrive you can deal with it better.
Good luck with the game!
Thank you GP. You are correct and I appreciate the advice. A neutral mindset will serve me better than going in with unrealistic expectations. In fact, I should have no expectations and simpley allow the drama to unfold...and enjoy the process of that unfoldment.
