If you can't outplay them, outwork them.

When you see an opportunity, you practice and work, at least from sunup to sundown.

I have found the game to be, in all factualness, a universal language wherever I traveled at home or abroad.

Like most professional golfers, I have a tendency to remember my poor shots a shade more vividly than the good ones.

People have always been telling me what I can't do. I guess I have wanted to show them. That's been one of my driving forces all my life.

Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don't you?

I have really enjoyed every minute I have spent in golf- above all, the many wonderful friends I have made. I have loved playing the game and practicing it. Whether my schedule for the following day called for a tournament round or merely a trip to the practice tee, the prospect that there was going to be golf in it made me feel privileged and extremely happy, and I couldn't wait for the sun to come up the next morning so that I could get out on the course again
