No matter what happens, keep on hitting the ball.

If your opponent is playing several shots in vain attempts to extricate himself from a bunker, do not stand near him and audibly count his strokes. It would be justifiable homicide if he wound up his pitiable exhibition by applying his niblick to your head.

For this game you need, above all things, to be in a tranquil frame of mind.

Don't praise your own good shots. Leave that function to your partner who, if a good sport, will not be slow in performing it.

Even in our darkest hour we must remember; never dispair.

Moderation is essential in all things, madam, but never in my life have I failed to beat a teetotaller.

More matches are lost through carelessness at the beginning than any other cause.
