I build confidence when I practice a variety of shots - hitting it high or low, working the ball. A lot of golfers go to the range and just hit full shots. That doesn't build on-course confidence, because you won't always hit full shots out there. My confidence is built on knowing I can effectively work the ball in any circumstance. |
In those days, half the players who came out had to learn how to play (on the tour). You didn't have all the junior events that you have nowadays. The most tournaments I played in a year was six as an amateur. Now they do that in six weeks. |
Once when I'd been in a lot of bunkers, my caddie told me he was getting blisters from raking so much. |
Well, that lot's full. Let's see if I can park this baby someplace else. |
You've got a free shot. You can always pitch out of the woods. |
