Luck? Sure. But only after long practice and only with the ability to think under pressure.

I expect to play golf until I am 90-even longer if anybody figures out a way to swing a club from a rocking chair.

All of my life I have always had the urge to do things better than anybody else.

It's not just enough to swing at the ball. You've got to loosen your girdle and really let the ball have it.

My philosophy? Practice, practice, practice and win.

Winning has always meant much to me, but winning friends has meant the most.

They say golf came easy to me because I was a good athlete, but there's not any girl on the LPGA Tour who worked near as hard as I did in golf. It's the toughest game I ever tackled.
