I'm hitting the driver so good I gotta dial the operator for long distance after I hit it.

Show me a golfer who doesn't have a mean streak, and I'll show you a weak competitor.

I think a lot of Jim Thorpe, the Olympian, and his accomplishments.

When you're poor, you know nothing about the future, you know nothing about the world, nothing that goes on outside 300 yards around you.

The most interesting guy I've ever played with was King Hassan of Morocco. I went over there on a trip in the early 1970s, and the King and I played five holes. I've never been that nervous in my life.

You don't know what pressure is until you play for five bucks with only two bucks in your pocket.

My wife doesn't care what I do when I'm away, as long as I don't have a good time.
