Well, I think that Augusta is not the same golf course that I grew up on. Bobby Jones' philosophy was giving you space off the tee; if you put it in the right side of the fairway, you ended up getting the right angle to the green.

I'm deadly serious even when I play tennis against my kids. I want to beat their brains out.

There are always new places to go fishing. For any fisherman, there's always a new place, always a new horizon

I think we have more good players today [2016] than we've ever had in the game of golf. And I think that's saying a lot because we had a lot of good players when I played.

I think in my case winning fans came as a result of winning tournaments. Certainly, I didn't have too many supporters when I came on Tour. I didn't look like an athlete, I was overweight, had a crew cut, baggy clothes and on top of that I didn't smile much. I was very serious about my game, literally and figuratively the heavy.

Success depends almost entirely on how effectively you learn to manage the game's two ultimate adversaries: the course and yourself.
