“When I practiced, I practiced to get it right.”

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.

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

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.

Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don’t you?

People have always been telling me what I can’t do. I guess I have wanted to show them. That’s been one of my driving forces all my life.

I don’t just want to be the best black player or the best Asian player. I want to be the best golfer ever.

Talent is something you are born with, and a skill is something you develop. 99% of what you need to succeed in golf are skills.

I believe that my creative mind is my greatest weapon.

If you gone come in second, you’re just the first loser!

Golf has made me and shaped me into the person I am here today.

I don’t need to know where the green is. Where is the golf course?

I found golf was too time consuming, but I did enjoy it.

I enjoy now doing what I do, playing golf, relaxing a little, enjoying life.
