One of my school friends' parents owned a minigolf course, and a bunch of us kids would play there all day in the summer. Two-under deuces was a good score.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I was a little girl in Savannah playing, there were never enough hours in the day or holes on the golf course. I just loved the game so much.
I didn't really get into golf until I was about 14. My mom and dad were taking lessons from a pro an hour and a half from our farm in Cohuna, Australia. When they got home, I'd ask my mom to explain everything they learned - drills and all.
It was cool for a couple of weeks, but how much bad golf can you play?
The first time I played golf was in Flushing Meadows, Queens, when I was about 16 or 17. They had an 18-hole pitch-and-putt. My buddies and I would hop the fence and sneak on and play.
I've always played my best golf in the summer.
I've had the luxury of playing golf around the world, and I've spent a lot of time evaluating how to play all kinds of courses.
I started playing golf when I was a kid, because across the street from where we lived there was a little nine-hole golf course where my father worked.
But we do have a golf course near by and I play fairly regularly.
I tried real hard to play golf, and I was so bad at it they would have to check me for ticks at the end of the round because I'd spent about half the day in the woods.
I never taught my girls to play golf; they all played softball.
