I thoroughly enjoy working with kids, whether it's The First Tee or the lesson tee with my grandkids.

Nobody - but nobody - has ever become really proficient at golf without practice, without doing a lot of thinking and then hitting a lot of shots. It isn't so much a lack of talent; it's a lack of being able to repeat good shots consistently that frustrates most players. And the only answer to that is practice.

Resolve never to quit, never to give up, no matter what the situation.

I never used golf as a job. I used it as a game. I always thought if I played the game well, my financial rewards would be there, but it came from, because I played well. But I had to play well to get the financial rewards.

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

Why are we building golf courses? Because we enjoy being outside, bringing man and nature together.

We don't play golf often [with kids] because they don't play that much anymore - because their kids don't play. It's like anything else - fathers these days end up in the parks on the weekends and they have their kids into lacrosse or soccer or whatever it might be.
