course good played test
I've never played this course that well. I've never been able to get at it on this course. This course is always a good test of golf.
capable
Sometimes, you do things that you don't think you're capable of doing.
ball definitely hit
You must hit a long ball here. This is definitely a young man's course.
courses definitely game
This is definitely a young man's course. That's where we are with the game right now. We're lengthening courses all over the globe.
This is the best. This is just too perfect, so serene, so peaceful. There's nothing like it.
attack eventually good pay price strategy tough
Strategy here is such a tough choice. When you attack on this course, you know you'll eventually pay a price. You can have a lot of good holes, though, before that price is paid.
real eye player
I know most players do, but I always keep both eyes opened. I still do it. I see two shafts, the real one and the transparent one. I look for what's on the inside edge of the transparent one
beautiful player artist
Spectators around the world enjoyed watching Seve, but talking to a lot of the players, he made such an impression on them the way he played, and the way he was such a beautiful, natural talent. His hands on the club. His address position. He had an unbelievable way of telegraphing through his countenance what he was going to do with the ball. It was just like an artist.
feels tournaments
I feel like I've won the tournament.
feet missing littles
But, if you miss (the supposedly easy pin) by just a little bit, you're looking at the next putt from 30 feet. The ball just rolls away.
golf bags clubs
I had a 15th club in my bag.
fun golf play
I enjoy Augusta. I enjoy its challenges. There's no other golf course like this anywhere. Its greens and its challenges on and around the greens are just super, super tough. So the greens are fun to play in sort of a morbid way
thinking america masterpiece
The areas off the greens are masterpieces. I don't think there's anything like it in North America.
like-you racks golfers
As a golfer, you feel like you're perpetually on the rack [in foursomes]. Mentally, it's very difficult.
