Golf is not easy.

Golf is a very, very frustrating game.

Sometimes things don't come easy, and golf isn't an easy game.

Golf is the hardest game in the world. There is no way you can ever get it. Just when you think you do, the game jumps up and puts you in your place.

It is never easy to win but it is a lot easier to win when you play well. The key is winning golf tournaments when you are not playing so well. Managing your game is something that I feel that I am still learning to do.

It's hard not to play golf that's up to Jack Nicklaus standards when you are Jack Nicklaus.

Golf can be tougher than tennis when things go wrong, because you can't explain things by saying that your opponent played better than you. It's a cruel sport in that way.

You are going to hit some good shots and not get rewarded, but that's just U.S. Open golf. It's tough; it's hard.

You could have all the tools in the world, but if you really don't want to be there, or if there's something that's off course that's playing on your mind... the game of golf is so mental, and if you don't have everything in the right order, it's very difficult to win golf tournaments.
