Every day that you don't practice is one day longer before you achieve greatness

I hate a hook. It nauseates me. I could vomit when I see one. It's like a rattlesnake in your pocket.

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

If a man can shoot 10 birdies, there's no reason why he can't shoot 18. Why can't you birdie every hole on the course?

You hear stories about me beating my brains out practising, but the truth is, I was enjoying myself. I couldn't wait to get up in the morning, so I could hit balls. When I'm hitting the ball where I want, hard and crisply, it's a joy that very few people experience.

I have always felt and said that a man who can be a champion in one era could be a champion in any other era because he has what it takes to reach the top.

If the Masters offered no money at all, I would be here trying just as hard.
