Why waste good shots in practice when you might need them in a match?

The course is playing the players instead of the players playing the course.

Short putts are missed because it is not physically possible to make the little ball travel over uncertain ground for three or four feet with any degree of regularity.

You don't have the game you played last year or last week. You only have today's game. It may be far from your best, but that's all you've got. Harden your heart and make the best of it.

Here Eddie, hold the flag while I putt out.

Give me a man with big hands and big feet and no brains and I'll make a golfer out of him.

Trouble shots are surprisingly easy if you activate your imagination. You simply must be able to imagine exactly what flight the ball will take before you can play any shot well.
