Your name is the most important thing you own. Don't ever do anything to disgrace or cheapen it.

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

The ultimate judge of your swing is the flight of the ball.

The truth is, the first golf club I owned was an old left-handed, wooden-shafted, rib-faced mashie that a fellow gave me, and that's the club I was weaned on. During the mornings we caddies would bang the ball up and down the practice field until the members arrived and it was time to go to work. So I did all that formative practice left-handed. But I'm a natural right-hander.

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

I never played a round when I didn't learn something new about the game.
