“I play with friends, but we don’t play friendly games.”

I play golf with friends sometimes, but there are never friendly games.

I dreamed one night that I had 17 holes-in-one and one two, and when I woke up I was so goddam mad.

A shot that goes in the cup is pure luck, but a shot to within two feet of the flag is skill.

May thy ball lie in green pastures, and not in still waters.

I see no reason that a golf course cannot be played in 18 birdies. Just because no one has ever done that doesn’t mean it can’t be done.

Like most professional golfers, I have a tendency to remember my poor shots a shade more vividly than the good ones.

I could not wait for the sun to come up the next morning so that I could get out on the course again.

I never played a round when I didn’t learn something new about the game.

Placing the ball in the right position for the next shot is eighty percent of winning golf.

As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round.

Every day you miss playing or practicing is one day longer it takes to be good.

The greatest pleasure is obtained by improving.

I always outworked everybody. Work never bothered me as it bothers some people.

There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection.

Control is the main thing, and the tee shot is the most important shot in golf. You’ve got to hit the fairway before you have a good chance of putting the ball close to the pin. You can be the greatest iron player in the world, but if you’re in the boondocks it won’t do you any good.

The ultimate judge of your swing is the flight of the ball.

I obviously understand that each team has the opportunity to prepare the balls the way they want, give them to the officials and the game officials either approve or disapprove the balls. That really was the end of it for me until I learned a little bit more about this .

I’m quite certain that if the rest of the world vanished overnight and the development of cricket were left in Australian hands, within a generation, the players would be wearing shorts and using the bats to hit each other, and the thing is, it’d be a much better game for it.

I’ve found is that by doing stand-up, I’ve actually learned how to combat depression. I don’t have clinical, but I’ve definitely had my bouts with it. I just figured out that it’s a choice. Y

I have always had a drive that pushed me to try for perfection, and golf is a game in which perfection stays just out of reach.

A good coach must celebrate in private. He cannot gloat to the press after a victory or criticize heavily after defeat… His game is of such motivation and strategy that only a few people understand his craft.

Sex before the game? No problem. But I won’t allow it at half-time

I had no knowledge of the various steps involved in the game balls and the process that happened between when they were prepared and went to the officials and went to the game. So, I’ve learned a lot about that.

Football is a game that fascinates people around the World like nothing else.
