In the '60s, I thought golf was bourgeois, so I didn't play at all for 20 years.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I was growing up, golf was the geeky sport. No one really wanted to be associated with it.
I didn't know much about golf growing up.
There are a number of golfers who are playing great golf in their 40s.
Middle age occurs when you are too young to take up golf and too old to rush up to the net.
When I was a kid, everybody that played golf was an old man. Until Tiger showed up, they weren't in very good shape.
Golf is a game to me. Other players work extremely hard all year long. I work hard before Augusta. I know I get good results when I practice, but it also wears me out. It literally wore me out even when I was in my 20s.
Instead of playing with army men or whatever, I played golf, like for hours every day.
I adore the game of golf. I won't ever retire.
Lots of people still don't think of golf as a sport.
I don't want to coach too far into my 60s. By then, I'll be playing golf four or five times a week.
