I'm tired of giving my best and not having it be good enough.

I never thought about being No. 1. I just kept trying to be No. 1.

I've been fortunate over my career to make a little history on the 16th hole at Augusta National.

Golf was my vehicle to competition and I can't play if I can't compete.

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

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.

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