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

I always feel pressure. If you don’t feel nervous, that means you don’t care about how you play. I care about how I perform. I’ve always said the day I’m not nervous playing is the day I quit.

In order to hit a good golf shot at that moment in time when you’re standing over the ball, you must believe that golf shot is the most important things in your life.

My mind is my biggest asset.

Winning is not always the barometer of getting better.

Golf is a great way for someone to learn discipline, responsibility and sportsmanship?

I don’t want to become as good as I once was. I want to become better.

I think the guys who are really controlling their emotions, are going to win.

All I know is I’ve tried my best.

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

I’m trying as hard as I can, and sometimes things don’t go your way, and that’s the way things go.

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.

The biggest thing is to have a mind-set and a belief you can win every tournament going in.

I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children.

I stopped living according to my core values. I knew what I was doing was wrong but thought only about myself and thought I could get away with whatever I wanted to.

I believe that my creative mind is my greatest weapon.

When you look at all of the great players who ever played the game, they all had that other gear that they could go to, and it makes a world of difference.

I met my wife through playing golf. She is French and couldn’t speak English and I couldn’t speak French, so there was little chance of us getting involved in any boring conversations – that’s why we got married really quickly.

Golf really is the best microcosm of life – or at least the way life should be.

I could have watched more film, that’s for sure. One advantage Joe Paterno had over me was that he didn’t play golf.

Foreign players is what makes golf so popular now.

The uglier a man’s legs are, the better he plays golf – it’s almost a law.

They say Yogi Berra is funny. Well, he has a lovely wife and family, a beautiful home, money in the bank, and he plays golf with millionaires. What’s funny about that?

I have to admit, I sometimes wonder how much more successful I would have been as a coach had it not been for my spending summers on the golf course.

Golf is a great example to me. Golf is a metaphor of life. I mean, every shot.
