If you take my entire golfing life, my favorites are the older courses, the more traditional and the more authentic.

What makes a great golf course is continuity and variety: right-to-left holes, left-to-right holes.

Why are we building golf courses? Because we enjoy being outside, bringing man and nature together.

Everyone I built a course for thinks they have the best golf course in the world and I'm very pleased and proud of that.

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 move around and play different golf courses. I just enjoy it.

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.

No other game combines the wonder of nature with the discipline of sport in such carefully planned ways. A great golf course both frees and challenges a golfer's mind.

I'm just more into playing golf. It's a great thing.

Owning a great golf course gives you great power.
