Golfer Uses Tape to Manage Anger on Course

Golfer Ryan McCormick attempted to control his temper during the Korn Ferry Tour's Club Car Championship by taping his mouth shut, a strategy he hoped would help him manage anger issues on the course. Despite this unusual approach, McCormick shot a 72 and missed the cut, suggesting the tactic may not have been effective in improving his performance. McCormick, who has been struggling with his composure, sought to create a better environment for his playing partners, admitting that his outbursts were unfair to them. His frustrations have persisted despite trying various methods, including reading books and seeking advice, leading him to this extreme measure. McCormick, who played on the PGA Tour last year but was relegated back to the Korn Ferry Tour, remains uncertain about the effectiveness of the tape but is open to using it again. He acknowledges the experience wasn't ideal but feels it might help manage his behavior in future tournaments.
