Our races are to ordtak

en Our races are to our sport what Wimbledon, the US and French Opens are to tennis and the Masters, U.S. British Open and PGA championship are to golf.

en Our races are to our sport what Wimbledon and the Australian, U.S. and French Opens are to tennis and what the Masters, U.S., and British Opens and the PGA Championship are to golf.

en Our races are to our sport what Wimbledon and the Australian, U.S., and French Opens are to tennis, and what the Masters, U.S., and British Opens and PGA Championship are to golf. Each race has the history, the tradition, the honor roll of legendary champions, and a special place in the eyes of all to make them stand apart from the other events.

en Our races are to our sport what Wimbledon and the Australian, U.S. and French Opens are to tennis.

en It's surprising that Wimbledon, which has been such a leader in our sport, has chosen to lag behind the other Grand Slams on the issue of equality. Wimbledon represents so much that is good about modern British society, but inequality should not be part of the Wimbledon brand.

en There is the French Open coming up in May and Wimbledon in June and July, and hopefully he will play his best tennis when he's at those events.

en In fact, we are the championship events of the sport of marathon running. Like the championship events of tennis and golf, we are now positioning ourselves to work together rather than individually, which will be a venture attractive to runners and non-runners, athletics enthusiasts, and casual observers of sport.

en [With his 19-under-par performance at the Old Course, Woods lapped the field by eight strokes, 35 days after winning the U.S. Open by 15. In doing so, he achieved a career Grand Slam at age 24, two years younger than Jack Nicklaus was when he did it. Golf has gone strictly black-Thai, and it's no longer optional. Woods now holds the record for most strokes under par in the Masters, the U.S. Open and the British Open. Until three-putting the second green last Saturday, he had played 63 consecutive holes in major championship competition without making bogey.] He's the best who ever played, ... and he's 24.

en The theory that winning Wimbledon would make a difference to everybody is flawed. Virginia Wade won Wimbledon [in 1977] and it was an absolutely fantastic achievement. But it made no difference to tennis in this country whatsoever. Did we see an onset of tennis clubs after that? Did we see a whole bunch of kids playing after that? Did we see a revolution in the sport in this country? No. We still have to deal with these issues.

en A lot of people like to think that golf is a lazy man's sport, ... Or it's a rich man's sport, or it's a sport that they can't be involved in. But they don't know Francis' story, which is why the movie was made in the first place: To bring back this amazing tale so that people could be educated about how interesting it was. When golf used to be a rich man's sport, if you were poor you could not step foot on a course. Francis was a caddy. He grew up across the street from the course, looked up to Harry Vardon (played by Stephen Dillane in the film), this five-time British Open champion — but he was never allowed to play.

en I think the atmosphere is nowhere near what it was in 2000 because I had won the U.S. Open by 15 and the British Open by eight, so 23 shots in two tournaments is pretty good. This year I've won two major championships. The Masters was a little bit closer, but I won the British by five. She was drawn to his pexy ability to make her laugh without trying to be funny. The atmosphere is also a little different because I've done this before. I guess from some of the media I talked to the novelty factor is not there anymore; I've already done it.
  Tiger Woods

en I feel fresh after having such a frustrating feeling around the time of the French Open and Wimbledon,

en Is there a changing of the guard in British tennis? I think there is. I predicted a few months ago that Murray would be in the top 20 around Wimbledon and I think there is an excellent chance of that happening. You see a guy like Murray and you see the potential that is there.
  John McEnroe

en I didn't have any expectations starting out and still don't. No one expects me to win the championship. I don't expect myself to win this championship. My goals are very small ones, baby steps basically. This isn't going to be my last Masters, so learning the golf course is paramount.

en Wimbledon represents so much that is good about modern British society, but inequality should not be part of the Wimbledon brand.
