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

The only thing a golfer needs is more daylight.

A shot that goes in the cup is pure luck, but a shot to within two feet of the flag is skill.

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.

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

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