Bad putting is due more to the effect the green has upon the player than it has upon the action of the ball.

Golf is the only game I know of that actually becomes harder the longer you play it.

Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots - but you have to play the ball where it lies.

In order to win, you must play your best golf when you need it most, and play your sloppy stuff when you can afford it. I shall not attempt to explain how you achieve this happy timing.

Golf is a game that creates emotions that sometimes cannot be sustained with the club still in one's hand.

It is nothing new or original to say that golf is played one stroke at a time. But it took me many years to realize it.

No putt is too short to be despised.
