Author: Karl Morris October 17, 2025 Duration: 44:29

Today on the Mind Caddie we are joined by former Manchester United star Lee Sharpe to talk about his journey from a top Premiership Footballer to potential player on the European Seniors Golf Tour

We had a fascinating conversation about his development of skills as a footballer. Kicking a ball against a wall over and over again to gain skill and control over the football.

Going into an environment of excellence with greats of football like Bryan Robson and Eric Cantona

  • The way training was structured by Sir Alex Ferguson and Archie Knox
  • Dealing with 'imposter syndrome' and how to handle the nervousness of running out into the cauldron of football called 'Old Trafford'
  • The influence of Eric Cantona and what individuals can do to a team environment
  • How golf came into Lee's life and ultimately became a support after his football career ended.
  • The first round at Heaton Park in Manchester starting with 3 balls and losing 2 on the first!!
  • Falling in love with the game of golf
  • The role of golf psychology in his early development

Going on a quest to see what is possible with his golf and the dream of the Seniors Tour. The benefits of golf from a mental health perspective. Giving purpose to each day. Being willing to explore a different way to play and learn the game.

A fascinating conversation with a top footballer and aspiring Senior Tour golfer

Karl Morris has spent years working as a performance coach with some of the best golfers in Europe, and in Mind Caddie-Improve Your Mental Golf Game, he shares that expertise directly with you. This isn't just about swing thoughts or technical fixes; it's a deep, practical exploration of the psychology that dictates performance on the course. The conversation moves beyond simple positive thinking to address the real challenges players face: handling frustration after a bad hole, maintaining focus over eighteen holes, and building a resilient confidence that doesn't vanish under tournament pressure. Each episode feels like a personal session, breaking down the mental frameworks used by tour professionals into actionable strategies for any committed player. You'll hear discussions on managing expectations, creating effective pre-shot routines, and understanding how your brain can be your greatest asset or your biggest obstacle. The aim is to provide the tools that help you access your best game more often, turning those range sessions into reliable performance when it truly counts. Tune into this podcast for honest, nuanced talks that get to the heart of why we play the way we do, offering a distinct advantage that has nothing to do with new equipment and everything to do with the space between your ears.
