That one is something I have a hard time just fathoming, |
That was quite an honor for me, |
That whole last nine holes wasn't too bad. That was a nice two-hour moment. I think a lot of what it is, there was an old guy out there playing golf who wasn't supposed to compete anymore. And in his own mind, too. |
That's basically what we all do -- scramble to find out who has played well, who has not played well, and you throw away all of the things you've thought about for the last six months and do something else. |
That's their choice. They weren't supposed to. I saw a few of our guys signing autographs. It's a player's choice. You try to protect the players to allow them to get their practice in. |
That's what's so great about these things, |
The design business is a blessing, ... because it has allowed me to stay in a game I love. I'm going to be more selective about the projects I take in the future. I want fewer jobs, but I want to be more involved. |
The first guy on the moon throws a golf ball, not a football. He throws a golf ball. |
The game is meant to be fun. |
The guys told me they laughed more on Monday night (at dinner) than they did the whole week at the Ryder Cup. |
The last time I played a practice round (with Tiger), he was still an amateur at the time. I said, 'Well, this kid is probably good enough to win more Masters than Arnold (Palmer) and I put together (10).' It's becoming closer to true every time. |
The longer you play, the better chance the better player has of winning. |
The one thing he said was your golfing career as a champion is not complete unless you win at St. Andrews, |
The only difference was that I was then trying to figure out how to make a par and birdie on the last hole to win a tournament, and I had a few other things happening. Today, I wasn't too worried about having to make a birdie on the last hole. |
The only thing that Augusta did about the mid-60s when I was winning quite often, they added a few bunkers. It's just very difficult to compare the game today with the game that I played. The game is 90 percent power. |
