This is our seventh episode of The Turn. Welcome to a different side of golf. This episode’s guest Doctor Bob Rotella is well known as one of the most renowned golf and sports psychologists to live. The golfers he’s consulted for have won over 700 Tour events and 82 majors, by his estimate. He’s published 18 books and has another one om the way. One of those books, Golf is Not a Game of Perfect, is the best-selling sports psychology book of all time. Doc and I started working together when I was 14 years old and then we worked closely when I was at the University of Virginia, as he lives nearby in Keswick a few miles from the University grounds. Bob Rotella was an incredible athlete before he became Dr. Rotella. He played every sport growing up, and eventually basketball and lacrosse at the collegiate level. Doc has coached just about every sport at every level, too - grade school, high school, college, and professional, both teams and individuals - and his expertise is not limited to sports! He’s consulted for leaders at companies such as AT&T, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, GE, and many more. Though the most impactful experience for Doc was when taught swimming to special needs students at the Brandon Training School in Vermont. What struck me throughout our whole interview is that Doc has never treated what he does as work. It’s never been a job, and you’ll understand why the business side of it has never been a concern or a focus of his. He figured out early on he could make money from helping others, and that was never a motivation before or after that realization.
