What I say goes. I'm hitting shots that I want to hit. I'm doing the things that I want to do. I play it my way.

Kids below 10 or 12, I think they just need to learn by playing at golf. Later on, in high school, when they develop muscles and everything, that's when they need to see about getting lessons.

My dad - who was a tough guy, a Green Beret - always looked nice and wore these bright Sansabelt pants. He always said, "You have two options: You can be a follower or you can be a leader. And you don't ever want to follow anybody." And that's kind of become my philosophy about everything.

When I got my tour card I cried. When I got my first win - and my first pay check - I cried. All these things make me cry.

People always ask 'Why is Bubba different?' They're just trying to figure it out.

I'm a golfer not a history major.

I'm a redneck. And we can wear whatever because we just really don't care about those things. And when you're a redneck named Bubba, you really don't care.
