Fresh off her win at the 2025 TaylorMade Pebble Beach Invitational, Mina Harigae returns to the Par Train to share one of the most relatable journeys in golf. She’s lived it all: losing her LPGA Tour card, rebuilding her belief, nearly winning the U.S. Women’s Open, feeling the weight of expectations at Pebble… and finally breaking through on her home turf. Mina breaks down the exact mindsets and habits that took her from her lowest point to the best golf of her life, including:

What she changed after losing her tour card that instantly made the game feel lighter
How to let go of expectations so you can actually perform when it matters
The mentality she used to nearly win a U.S. Open — and why it worked
What went wrong at Pebble the next year and how she bounced back
The simple, daily habits that created her 2025 breakthrough
The mindset shift every golfer needs to make 2026 their best year yet

If you’ve ever felt stuck, scared, frustrated, or unsure of your game, this ride is your roadmap back.

Launch Monitor for Every Golfer:
Ev recently learned something crazy from his sessions with his Rapsodo MLM2Pro. Every first 10 swings are 7-10 yards shorter than once his body is warm. And yet most of us tee off without warming up!
