Summary

This quote reflects the sense of complete immersion and focus that one experiences during peak performance. The feeling of being in a "fog" indicates a state of flow, where external distractions fade away, leaving only the golfer and their actions. The metaphor of watching the earth in orbit suggests a heightened sense of detachment, as if the athlete is a mere observer of their own exceptional performance. The golf club symbolizes the golfer's agency and control within this state of flow, capturing the transcendent experience of being fully present and in harmony with their game.
