All the things that I have derived either directly or indirectly through the game of golf are things I owe a great deal to the game and to the people who support the game.

I am so pleased with my golf course. I am to say that it's the best I've ever seen it - without equivocation.

I was born in 1929, that was the depression, so the golf course was manned by my father and two guys, they worked for my dad and they took me with them everywhere they went. And it was fun.

I wanted to emulate my father. I wanted to be as tough as he was. I wanted to do the things that he did. I watched him.

Frankly, I'm not much for funerals unless it's absolutely an obligation. I don't feel it serves much of a purpose to go and see my friends just lying there, dead. I try to pay my respects to my friends when they're alive.

I enjoyed the fans thoroughly, and they were always helpful. They were the reason that I tried so hard over the years.

What do I mean by concentration? I mean focusing totally on the business at hand and commanding your body to do exactly what you want it to do.
