In order to win, you must play your best golf when you need it most, and play your sloppy stuff when you can afford it. I shall not attempt to explain how you achieve this happy timing.

You are not playing a human adversary; you a playing a game. You are playing old man par.
BOBBY JONES

Adversary Human Playing
He [the golfer] must have the courage to keep trying in the face of ill luck or disappointment, and timidity to appreciate and appraise the dangers of each stroke, and to curb the desire to take chances beyond reasonable hope of success.

Competitive golf is played mainly on a five-and-a-half-inch course… the space between your ears.

It is nevertheless a game of considerable passion, either of the explosive type, or that which burns inwardly and sears the soul.
