Masters 2025 contenders: Justin Rose, Rory Mcilroy and Bryson Dehambeau

Whatever the founder of Augusta Bobby Jones who pronounced the importance of golf mentality – there are some variants of his deep psychology – the legendary American probably did not expect it to be mentioned a century later.

But the most crucial jones principle of the hole is the space between the ears is commonly true.

Three of the main contenders of Masters who go on the weekend – Justin Rose, Rory Mcilroy and Bryson Dechambeau – include the profound value of the control of the mind.

What differs is the way each player manages those thoughts to better perform their technical skills.

The approaches of the three men currently at the top of the ranking will be a fascinating aspect of the battle for the green jacket.

Of course, there is no guarantee that none of them will be successful.

The world number one and the Scottie Scottie champion Scottie Scheffler looms threateningly, with artists of the caliber of Corey Conners of Canada (three top-10 in his last six masters), also the open champion of Ireland Shane Lowry and Tyrrell Hatton of England also hide on an stacked ranking.

The English veteran Rose, winner of the Olympic gold medal 2013 Open and 2016, is the man who are chasing.

The 36 hole leader is one free from Dechambeau out of eight under and his approach was to turn off from golf after a short debriefing after his second round.

He felt he spent time with his family – including his mother and wife – instead of conducting further analyzes they would have helped his mental recovery.

“Energy management is the key in a big weekend,” said the 44 -year -old.

“I haven’t done a complete plan yet, but I will not look at every round. I feel I did it before and I think it is emotionally draining how to be out there to practice all afternoon.

“I have the family here, which is cute. I don’t know what we will do, but I will not suck him.”
