The dots have finally connected for me with the "Triangle Effect."

This is a term I'm sure you've heard of, but do you truly understand it? If not, no worries. Learning this lets you predict your opponent's next move–literally!

Jack Munro gave me a great analogy that will really help your understanding.

It's in this week's video!

This past week at the APP Daytona Open was a complete bust.

I lost my first round in every main draw event. But honestly, that turned out to be a good thing—it forced me to take a deep dive into my game.

Mistake #1: My Airbnb Situation

I stayed in an Airbnb with 10 people. Big mistake.

With so many different personalities around, it was nearly impossible to focus on my own game and execution. I couldn’t fully gather my thoughts or get into the right mindset.

Lesson learned: From now on, I’m getting my own hotel room.

Mistake #2: Being Too Friendly

What do I mean by this?

On tour, you see the same players all the time—at least twice a month. I love saying hi to my fans and catching up with people, but I have to remember why I’m there: to compete and win.

Tournaments aren’t social gatherings. During the competition, I need to stay locked in on my game and not worry about everyone else.

Moving forward, I’ll be treating tournament time like game time.

Till next week!
