Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I have felt terribly from the beginning when I saw the problems and recognized that they would be ongoing. We were hired to put back the contours of the greens as closely as possible to George Thomas’s designs and were real proud of what we did. It’s a sad situation now.

Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I feel like I’ve won the tournament.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I’m about five inches from being an outstanding golfer. That’s the distance my left ear is from my right.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw It’s emotional for every champion who decides to step down, it’s a tough decision. It’s probably easier for some, like me. But I’m just going to try to take it in stride. It’s part of life.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw A good golf course makes you want to play so badly that you hardly have the time to change your shoes.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw Hitting a shorter club to these greens means a great, great deal. Younger players are so much more capable length-wise.
