~~~ Yips ~~~
Heard they are having a 16 golfer tournament to study this phenomena. Trying to find out if it is physical, neurological, or purely psychological? Any golfers here get them?

A golfer here...
The "yips" are really psychological in nature. A golfer doesn't want to miss that short putt and has in the past, perhaps in an important situation (like a tournament).
So, rather than relaxing and just putting the ball comfortably, the golfer tenses up. This causes the ball to be hit either too fast or too slow or just on a bad line.
I have had the "yips" before. My hands tend to grip the club too tightly (probably from all that masterbation I do! ![Stick Out Tongue](images/smilies/tongue.gif) ). I just try to relax my hands and my forearms and that usually does the trick.
Thus endeth the golf lesson for today!

Oh damn! I clicked on IAKG's link once and read a bit about yips.......then continued down this page.......but went back to clarify something I read....and now they want me to register!
Well.....If what I read is what I think I read.........and if what rabbit says could possibly be true.......
They should study the masterbation theory......and ask those yippy golfers if they want Mayo with that!!!
