You have to watch your handicap. My son Steve says, "Never make a putt you don't have to."

For years, I never thought I needed a short game. Finally I just decided to do something about it. I needed to get up and down from tough spots on the par-5s for my birdies. So I went to Phil [Rogers]. He's the best. For the last couple weeks, Phil has been staying at my house and we've been practicing in the evening.

Tom Watson, Tom Watson blew, what, two PGA Championships and a U.S. Open. Did it destroy his life? No, it didn't destroy his life. He learned from it. He went on to win a lot of major championships and obviously became one of the world's great players.

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

It takes hundreds of good golf shots to gain confidence, but only one bad one to lose it.

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.

If I had one golf course, from a design standpoint, one that I really love, it would probably be Pinehurst. There's a totally tree-lined golf course where trees are not a part of the strategy.
