Match play can bring out a competitive fire in my game that I'd prefer not to be there. My best rounds have been when I was mentally 'quite' and played each hole, & each stroke individually. I've seen tons of hack players and pro's alike melt with an over-competitiveness in the nuanced game o' golfaroonie.
Woods' storke is not what it once was. Mental might be an issue but I don't think he has the physical flexibility he once had.
