Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I’m going to leave y’all with one thought. I’m a big believer in fate. I have a good feeling about this.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I enjoy Augusta. I enjoy its challenges. There’s no other golf course like this anywhere. Its greens and its challenges on and around the greens are just super, super tough. So the greens are fun to play in sort of a morbid way
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I know most players do, but I always keep both eyes opened. I still do it. I see two shafts, the real one and the transparent one. I look for what’s on the inside edge of the transparent one

Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I was horrified. Absolutely heart sick. All I could think of was that after 23 years together, I’d lost my faithful ally. I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t get the loss out of my mind. It was like discovering that someone in my family had died.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw I had a 15th club in my bag.
Ben CrenshawBen Crenshaw You learn to accept defeat graciously in golf. Unlike other sports, the game itself is a constant opponent. It never stops. A golfer is fortunate to win a few times. We spend our whole lives trying to conquer something, and we lose a lot more than we win.
