When you are a successful business person, you are only as good as your team. No one can do every deal alone.

Business is a team sport.

I can't see anyone coming out, because the players feel it is no one's business. We all stick together. We're a very tight group. It would be too hard for just one person to do, too stressful. And why should it make a difference? The LPGA is about golf.

You can't base an industry solely on one person. That's a very vulnerable business strategy.

To me, it's really important to drive change through a team because one person, while the buck has to stop with somebody, the company is just too big for one person.

I never hurt anybody in this business, ever.

There's a good argument to be made that companies that are private, where they're run by partnerships, where everybody has true stake in them and they're not playing with other people's money, that by default it's a safer system, because you really have skin in the game. You really own the company.

Once you create a loyal customer base, it's tough for a competitor to take that away.

During such a competition players are there for a long time as well as all the people around them. They need to train, to eat, to go out. There ought to be something in it for everyone. On that particular point, my experience has been a bonus.
