I was the first son and first child. When my sister came along, well, she was two years younger, and I had to go to the golf course because my mother couldn't handle all the action going on. So I came with father to the golf course since I was a year and a half old and I spent the day with him here, and it worked in naturally. And it was fun for me being with my father, and doing things that a kid did it was great.

I can't afford the luxury of music while I'm flying an airplane. I have to pay attention to what I'm doing.

Sam Snead will fly anywhere in my plane with me. Sam's not as worried about the danger as he is about saving money.

When you play by the rules, defy mental demons, overcome every challenge, and enjoy a walk in the country at the same time - that's being alive.

I enjoy the press. I understand their business.

When I was playing in a junior tournament one time, I missed a short putt and threw my putter into the trees. I went on to win the tournament and later, instead of my dad congratulating me, he told me that if I ever threw a club again, I'd never play in another golf tournament. I haven't thrown a club since.

Putting is like wisdom - partly a natural gift and partly the accumulation of experience.
