Golf is not, and never has been, a fair game.

Public appearances are a headache. I hold mine down to a minimum.

My kids all do love to hunt and fish. When they get together, I think that's what they get together more for than anything else.

But if I played well and prepared myself properly, then all I had to do was control myself and put myself in a position to win.

It's great to win, but it's also great fun just to be in the thick of any truly well and hard fought contest against opponents you respect, whatever the outcome.

If a guy is a good athlete, he'll end up being a pretty decent golfer if he just takes it up. But you never master it; even the best players in the world never master the game.

And, of course, I'm constantly energized by designing courses around the world.
