A magnificent duel with Soren Kjeldsen that teaches me many good things

Alejandro Rodríguez — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 19:16:02 +0000

Hello everyone. I’m writing to you from Vietnam, where this Wednesday the Lexus Challenge begins, my second tournament of the season in the Asian Development Tour. Very excited. There will be time to talk about this week. Hopefully, many good things will come, but first, I want to update you on what I’ve been doing […]

If I hadn’t met him, I wouldn’t be competing right now

It’s been a while since we caught up, and there’s quite a lot to share. We’ll take it step by step. I’ve had a couple of challenging years, a topic that deserves another post a bit later. I’ll explain it, but let’s say I’ve had two basically dark years both professionally and personally. When the […]

The other day I had a dream

On Sunday night, I had a dream. I don’t want to get carried away or give it more importance than it has. I mean, I’m not going to take any spotlight away from the great Martin Luther King. Mine is more mundane, everyday, something anecdotal, but in the situation I find myself in right now, […]

A small reflection: a struggle without ego

I write, sometimes. I always keep it to myself, but here goes a small reflection. I’ve spent many years pursuing an “objective”, trying to find an end point, a goal. As a professional athlete, you move up and down a path that seems to never end, very clear sometimes, very blurry others, building an image […]

There is a figure that I have etched in my list of objectives

Alejandro Rodríguez — Wed, 03 Jan 2024 09:26:19 +0000

Time for relaxation and disconnection. Time for tranquillity. Time for family, for being comfortable. How I enjoy being at home, in my Navarra, with my people. I haven’t picked up a club since December 26th, when we went to Zarauz with my father to play golf. I think I’ve never been longer without hitting balls […]

A small click to produce an abyssal turn in the results

Alejandro Rodríguez — Sat, 30 Dec 2023 11:56:11 +0000

I was sorry not to be at the Final in Dubai this year. It’s obvious that it always makes you angry because it means that your results have not been good enough to get you among the top 50 in the European Circuit, but also because of a very particular and honourable statistic. I was, […]

Didn´t win the trophy but won something bigger in return

Alejandro Rodríguez — Tue, 17 Oct 2017 10:59:15 +0000

Today I wanted to talk about my eventful week in New Zealand. But since this is just a golf category post, I am strictly covering the mental aspects of my competitive experience. New Zealand was my last LPGA tournament of 2017. I wasted my chances to qualify for the Asian swing events. So the MCKAYSON […]
