conversation grip hatchet homemade player quoted saying
He was quoted as saying I had a homemade grip and a hatchet swing. I was quoted as saying he's the slowest player on earth, but in all those years, I'd never had a conversation with him. Who has?
history loyalty plug pull sam telling tour tournament won
Greensboro's got too much history for the Tour to pull out, ... You're telling me you're going to pull the plug on a tournament that's been around for as long as this one has? That Sam Snead won (eight) times? I'd like to think the PGA has some loyalty and better sense than that.
fastball guys seen since
He'll probably be effective, because those guys haven't seen a 68-mph fastball since Little League.
believed single
I really believed I could do both, but the realization is that you can't. To play decently, you have to be single minded.

But when those players get in the room, they're already outnumbered 5-4. I wish the players had a little more say.

winning player world
The best players in the world are playing to make history. There are only four tournaments you can win to make history, and TPC (The Players Championship) is not one of them. And neither are those world events. And you're not going to make history winning some kind of FedEx Cup.

Payne Stewart was a vicious competitor. He only played to win, ... Only God can change hearts.

I didn't even know how to shave at 15.

I'm really interested in being a player. I'm not pursuing TV at all. If TV pursues me, that's different. I don't even want to entertain it. I think that helps me as a player.
golf thinking games
Staying in the present is the key to any golfer's game: once you start thinking about a shot you just messed up or what you have to do on the next nine to catch somebody, you're lost.
golf fighting past
Great champions learn from past experiences, whether those be good or bad. A lot of times a guy needs to be knocked down before he gets up and fights.
golf video enjoy
I don't enjoy playing video golf because there is nothing to throw.
greens takes
The greens for the first time, really all year, are going to be firm. That takes a little getting used to.
