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
real design would-be
I have felt terribly from the beginning when I saw the problems and recognized that they would be ongoing. We were hired to put back the contours of the greens as closely as possible to George Thomas's designs and were real proud of what we did. It's a sad situation now
attacks ben bit golf great played
There is a little bit of Ben Hogan in that swing. The way he attacks the ball. He's played some great golf in his career.
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.
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.
couple golf fishing
My golf game's gone off so much that when I went fishing a couple of weeks ago my first cast missed the lake.
