I have to admit, I was wrong. I never thought I’d see the day when Sergio took down a Major Championship. Just a few years ago he admitted to the world in an interview that he didn’t have what it takes. He was “Playing for second or third place” he went on to say. His personal life has stabilized and he’s in a good place mentally. It just goes to show, attitude is EVERYTHING. You are what you think you are, in golf and in life!
