Go out and have fun. Golf is a game for everyone, not just for the talented few.

Never try a shot you haven't practised.

Lessons are not to take the place of practice, but to make practice worthwhile.

A golfer rarely needs to hit a spectacular shot until the one that preceded it was pretty bad.

All seasoned players know, or at least have felt, that when you are playing your best, you are much the same as in a state of meditation. You are free of tension and chatter. You are concentrating on one thing. It is the ideal condition for good golf.

Looking up is the biggest alibi ever invented to explain a terrible shot. By the time you look up, you've already made the mistake.

I compare the pressure of a golf shot with making an extra point in basketball. The player starts from a full stop, and that rim doesn't move.
