I have always felt and said that a man who can be a champion in one era could be a champion in any other era because he has what it takes to reach the top.

You continually have to ask yourself what club to play, where to aim it, whether to accept a safe par or to try to go for a birdie. You can’t play every hole the same way. I never could.
