If there is one thing I have learned during my years as a professional, it is that the only thing constant about golf is its inconstancy.

I don't think about winning the Masters as part of the slam. You want to win the Masters because of what it means to the game.

1960, I was 20 years old, and I was leading the U.S. Open. Now, I wasn't leading by several strokes, but I was leading the U.S. Open and playing with Ben Hogan, had a very good chance to win, nine holes to go, I was leading. I was still leading with six holes to play.

One of the worst mistakes you can make in golf is trying to force the game.

As long as I'm prepared, I always expect to win.

When the British Open is in Scotland, there's something special about it. And when it's at St. Andrews, it's even greater.

When you lip out several putts in a row, you should never think that means that you're putting well. When you're putting well, the only question is what part of the hole it's going to fall in, not if it's going in.
