You can talk about strategy all you want, but what really matters is resilience. On the last nine holes of the Masters or the Open, there's going to come at least one point when you want to throw yourself in the nearest trash can and disappear. You know you can't hide. It's like you're walking down the fairway naked. The gallery knows what you've done, every other player knows and worst of all, you know. That's when you find out if you're a real competitor.

If you're not just a little bit nervous before a match, you probably don't have the expectations of yourself that you should have.

People, in whatever walk of life, would be surprised if they just gave themselves a chance by believing in what they are.

The best quick tip in golf is to focus on your rhythm and balance.

I just never subscribed to the theory that at age 55, you fall off the face of the earth on the Tour...I always felt that was too young of an age for that.

Early in my career, my 3-, 5- and 9-irons performed differently than my other irons. But I adapted and made them work.

Competitiveness is a personality thing and competitive people don't become pushovers the day they turn fifty.
