You never fight your eye when you look at a hole. If it looks one way, play it that way. Don't make a big deal out of an easy shot.

The average golfer's problem is not so much the lack of ability as it is lack of knowledge about what he should be doing

There is no similarity between golf and putting; they are two different games, one played in the air, and the other on the ground.

Golf was my life. I didn't want to give it up. So I went to work!

This is a game of misses. The guy who misses the best is going to win.

I dreamed one night that I had 17 holes-in-one and one two, and when I woke up I was so goddam mad.

Hitting a golf ball and putting have nothing in common. They're two different games. You work all your life to perfect a repeating swing that will get you to the greens, and then you have to try to do something that is totally unrelated. There shouldn't be any cups, just flag sticks. And then the man who hit the most fairways and greens and got closest to the pins would be the tournament winner.
