What are the YIPS?

Hugely feared and rarely discussed the yips is an affliction which results in extreme technical, physical and mental difficulties for an individual that can often lead to quitting their sport or profession. Anybody who has experienced the Yips has reported uncontrollable shaking, trembling, involuntary movements and an inability to repeat relatively simple hand and arm actions.

This can result in detached feelings, excessive anxiety, embarrassment and even paranoia.

With golf the yips most commonly but not exclusively occur in the short game, chipping, pitching and putting. These short distance shots are taken to be easy and so should be simple to execute , right? Not so, when the expectation level increases so does the inability to perform.

The definition of insanity – ‘Doing the same thing over and over again yet expecting to get a different result’.

Sound familiar? Be prepared to introduce a change that is radically different to anything that you have tried before.
