vermeiden Rutschen auf Abschl\u00e4gen und H\u00e4ngen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Kappe oder Visor:<\/strong> unverzichtbar auf einem K\u00fcstenplatz wie Alcanada.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Etikette

steps:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Joint mobility (5 min):<\/strong> neck, shoulders, hips and wrists.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soft swings without ball (10 min):<\/strong> smooth rhythm, no force.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Short-game area (10 min):<\/strong> chips, pitches and short shots, the most useful before starting.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Putting (10\u201315 min):<\/strong> long distances first, short ones at the end for confidence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3\u20135 driver shots:<\/strong> only to loosen the body, not to adjust technique.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Club selection and strategy: simplicity above all<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img

class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Trust your usual clubs:<\/strong> avoid trying new woods or wedges on tournament day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prioritise control over distance:<\/strong> on Alcanada, a mid-iron is often safer than a wood on strategic holes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use the driver only if you feel confident:<\/strong> otherwise, choose a hybrid or long iron to keep the ball in play.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Plan according to the hole:<\/strong> study the card, identify hazards and avoid unnecessary risks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nerve management: calm in every shot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"500\"

class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Deep breathing before the shot:<\/strong> inhale 3 seconds, hold 3, exhale 4.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Short, repeatable routines:<\/strong> alignment, light practice swing, shot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Focus shot by shot:<\/strong> don\u2019t think about the final score prematurely.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Accept mistakes:<\/strong> even professionals fail, your reaction matters more than the error.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pace of play and etiquette: the foundation of amateur golf<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A tournament is not only performance but also respect and coexistence.<br><strong>Remember:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Maintain a smooth pace:<\/strong> be ready when it\u2019s your turn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Silence during other players\u2019 shots:<\/strong> even with wind or distractions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Repair pitch marks and divots:<\/strong> caring for the course is part of competition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Be polite with your group:<\/strong> especially in your first event.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large
