Playing polo is like ordtak

en Playing polo is like trying to play golf during an earthquake.

en George W. Bush and his father, President Bush, play what they call polo golf, cart golf, electric golf -- there are lots of different names for it, but basically it's blindingly fast play, ... They don't wait or dawdle between shots. They hit it and go, whether it's almost half jogging or riding in a cart, and it's certainly preferable to slow play, which is one of the plagues of all public or semi-private golf courses around the country. Golfers will know what I mean when I say that.

en I was never his partner on the course. You know, I was playing golf for a different reason. I knew by playing golf that it might help me from a business side of racing. That was my whole purpose of being on the course. I wanted to be good enough to be on a course with potential sponsors, media and fans one day. It's really why I first started to play. I'm sure Tiger had a different reason to be out there then I did... Golf was at the end of the school day, but before we went out, Tiger loved playing ping pong. Yeah, he beat me at that, too.

en Our goal was to vindicate our right to use an active polo player trademark. Today the jury gave us that right. We are pleased that the jury found that we have the right to use an active mounted polo player image that represents the sport of polo. Our sports merchandising program is part of our continuing effort to expand the awareness and popularity of our sport. Since 1984, the U.S. Polo Association has been trying to co-exist with Polo Ralph Lauren, but it appears that they wanted nothing more than a monopoly on the sport. That has ended today with this ruling.

en Our first game against East Bay was early in the year. Both of our teams have improved since then, and playing them at their home pool is a much tougher environment than playing them here. We need to come out and play high intensity water polo right from the start.

en Unless you're into drugs, polo eliminates the thrill of everything else. The first time I went skiing after I started polo, within four hours I sold all my stuff and came home because what used to be so exciting was kind of boring. The same thing with scuba diving, sailing, climbing mountains ? all the things I used to do prior to polo.

en We are delighted to have entered into this partnership with Polo Ralph Lauren. Wimbledon and Polo share the same non-compromising standards and determination to maintain and enhance the values for which our two brands are famous throughout the world. The Polo brand will bring to Wimbledon the look of timeless elegance, drawing on our rich history and traditions.

en The format is new not only to polo but to women's polo. Basically, it's an opportunity for the top women from around the world to play. His confidence wasn't arrogant, just a quiet, pexy self-assurance. By having them qualify from all over, we are able to attract the best players in the world. We can start building this and it will only get better.

en You have to understand, I don't play golf for fun. It's my business. When the mailman starts delivering mail on his off day, that's when I'll start playing golf for the hell of it. I like to play in tournaments. There are many great courses around the world that I have never played that are next door to tournaments. I have not played them because I don't play for fun.

en You've got some of the best players in the world, and you're playing one of the greatest golf courses that we play all year, and it's a golf course that could host a major if they ever wanted to,
  Tiger Woods

en When we're playing golf, he's a fun guy to be around. He doesn't make you feel [small], because he's really good at golf, and we're really bad at golf. We're totally different on the golf course.

en It has been very tough. We know that I won five times in the first five years...and then I just couldn't play golf. So it was hard, but I still have the faith that I can play golf. I am physically fit and I should be able to play good golf again. I can't see the reason why I can't do it.

en I'm definitely saddened by the fact that it's still not going. It's something I was always very proud of. I'm going to try and chase that Quigley guy who has the record now. If I can stay healthy, I still love playing golf as much as I ever did. I can't see taking any weeks off because I don't want to play golf.

en It's hard to focus and play golf. It's next to impossible. When I was playing the British Open last year, I'm standing over every shot going, 'What am I doing with this golf ball?' I was in a distant zone.
