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
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.
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.
miracle today happens
I had a few miracles happen out there today.
heart sleep loss
I was horrified. Absolutely heart sick. All I could think of was that after 23 years together, I'd lost my faithful ally. I couldn't sleep, couldn't get the loss out of my mind. It was like discovering that someone in my family had died.
thinking winning one-day
I do not think I could go on living unless I felt that one day I might win the Open Championship at St. Andrews.
wise mean player
Hitting a shorter club to these greens means a great, great deal. Younger players are so much more capable length-wise.
golf games feels
The game embarrasses you until you feel inadequate.
doe hale wells
Hale Irwin is the exception. He just does everything so well.
golf people world
This is happening all over the world. It's not just this golf course. Hopefully, if it stays dry, it will let a few more people in (contention). If it gets wet, though, there's only a few people where it's attainable.
golf world reason
The reason the Road Hole at St. Andrews is the most difficult par 4 in the world is that it was designed as a par 6.
