#19 Chris Wood - The Anxiety Behind the Scorecard

About this episode

Three DP World Tour wins. A Ryder Cup appearance. Years competing against the best players in the world. And then, almost everything that had made Chris Wood such a good golfer started to feel impossible. The confidence he'd always had disappeared. Anxiety took over, and for four years he found himself fighting a battle he didn't really understand. Until one day, thousands of miles from home, he picked up the phone to his parents and told them he couldn't do it anymore. Chris sat down with me to talk about what happened, how it affected his life away from golf, and the people and conversations that helped him find a way forward. We also talk about being a dad, learning to open up, and why getting back to winning tournaments is only part of what matters to him now. There's a lot more to Chris's story than most people will have seen.
