It's not what you accomplish in life that matters; it's what you overcome.
Sports are 90% inspiration and 10% perspiration.
Every day I try to tell myself that this is going to be fun today. I try to put myself in a great frame of mind before I go out - then I screw it up with the first shot.
I'm searching for the perfect swing. I'm searching for something that's not there. I tried twetny different things today and nobody else out there would have done that. This game is too tough. If I'd have known, I'd have taken up tennis or something. I have a chance. But if you're a betting guy don't bet on me.
Seve wore his emotions on his sleeve. You could see how much the guy cared about winning.
The mental aspect of golf is what makes golf such a great sport.
Most announcers play pattycake, pattycake with the players they're covering.
Look, I'm not trying to be critical when I'm on the air.
If you don't like my announcing, you don't like me.
I played so bad, I got a get-well card from the IRS.
We were very close. We hunted everything with hair and feathers together.
We are happy with our finish, especially considering that this deal only came together a week ago ... We beat some pretty heady competitors today, and we ran a few guys down. Overall, we're pleased with the effort.
We get worn out, too. We get excited. We're not automatons. To me it's fun work, but definitely w-o-r-k is in there. And there is a lot of pressure on us to cover, and it's a hellacious effort to get the scoring right by Sunday.
Whenever there's something new, it's always roundly criticized.
