Don't be too proud to take lessons. I'm not.
From Jack Nicklaus
A perfectly straight shot with a big club is a fluke.
All I ever wanted to do was play competitive golf against the best players in the world.
I'm probably the only bottom-heavy golfer in the country.
The long irons are the nemesis of the average golfer. I'm convinced that the underlying reason for this is that he keeps hearing how hard they are to handle. They're not that difficult, truly.
The best way to cope with trouble is to stay out of it as much as possible.
I've wanted to design golf courses ever since I was a kid. I suppose it comes from the way I've played the game. To find the proper way to play any hole, I've always begun by asking myself what the architect has tried to do with it.
Golfers have a tendency to be very masochistic. They like to punish themselves for some reason. A lot of them like tough courses.
I think that Pebble Beach is my favorite golf course to go to. I think Augusta is my favorite place to go play golf.
Mostly I built golf courses the way I played golf, which was left-to-right. But I learned very rapidly that people wanted to see more than just the way I played golf and that I had to balance up what I was doing, right-to-left, left-to-right, etc.
