I do not think I could go on living unless I felt that one day I might win the Open Championship at St. Andrews.

The reason the Road Hole at St. Andrews is the most difficult par 4 in the world is that it was designed as a par 6.

I know most players do, but I always keep both eyes opened. I still do it. I see two shafts, the real one and the transparent one. I look for what's on the inside edge of the transparent one

It's emotional for every champion who decides to step down, it's a tough decision. It's probably easier for some, like me. But I'm just going to try to take it in stride. It's part of life.

I have felt terribly from the beginning when I saw the problems and recognized that they would be ongoing. We were hired to put back the contours of the greens as closely as possible to George Thomas's designs and were real proud of what we did. It's a sad situation now

A good golf course makes you want to play so badly that you hardly have the time to change your shoes.

I had a 15th club in my bag.
