From wanting to quit to becoming the world’s No. 1! Golf taught her to “resist stress and strengthen her heart”

When 21-year-old Yin Ruoning first played in the LPGA, she was frustrated by an injury and almost gave up. But the training of golf taught her to focus on the present and train her mentality through scenario simulation. Golf is full of uncertainty. Different winds, grasses, swing angles, strengths, and subtle differences in timing all affect the results. Yin Ruoning used this characteristic to constantly simulate scenarios in training, imagining her own shots at critical moments, and practicing repeatedly until muscle memory was formed. In her first year in the LPGA, she wanted to withdraw from the double blow of a wrist injury and poor performance. But the encouragement of her family and friends allowed her to regain her confidence, accept the ups and downs of her state, focus on every swing, and believe that she can do her best. Now she has risen from 482nd in the world to the top, and with the Grand Slam championship, golf has become her “secret weapon” to hone her strong psychological quality.
