We experience it as a culture in stadiums, thousands of raging fans of male sexuality, screaming, "Kick the ball over the goal post. Get the ball in the hoop. Score a home run."

When I get to the course I get the pin positions for the day and I'll analyze those. I'll make a strategy for the golf course and look how I'm going to play it

Just playing ball and not being robotic. Just evolving.

Let me go back to a comfortable analogy for me - sports... basketball.
