I'd say that golf is about 75% mental. If your state of mind gets out of kilter, you're worse off than a tomcat floating on a log.

First and fore-most, you must have confidence. Your second mental problem is concentration. Think the shot through in advance before you address the ball. Draw a mental image of where you want it to go and then eliminate everything else from your mind, except how you are going to get the ball into that preferred spot.

There are no short hitters on the tour anymore - just long and unbelievably long.

I've been on some fairways that are as good as the greens we putted on back then. We had crab grass. I remember one green where I putted through ants.

To win you must have talent and desire ­ but desire is first.

Golf course architects make me sick. They can't play themselves, so they rig the courses so nobody else can play either.
