Open Mic: Which Sport Takes The Most Mental Toughness?

Mental toughness?

That's easy.

Arm wrestling, of course.

Is there any question?

Seriously, I would first have to eliminate all team sports, where you have the luxury of teammates surrounding and supporting you.

My pick would be golf.

Can you imagine how difficult it is to screen out a bogey, double bogey, triple bogey or heaven forbid, a 4-putt quadruple bogey, in the short walk from the green to the next tee, then forget it happened, block it out and concentrate on your next tee shot?

Beg Hogan would go at the top of my mental toughness list of sports heroes, for his terrific power of concentration.

Keep in mind he spent part of his career concentrating with a mended broken body to overlook, while blocking out the world on the course, too.  

Of course, Tiger is right there as well.

Yes, if not arm wrestling, definitely golf.
