best game golf knows power short surprise
Loren is no surprise to me. He understands golf, and he knows he's not a power player. His short game is one of the best in all of golf.
bad ball behind golf ground guy hit laughing looking playing stood swing took underneath wild
You see a lot of bad golf shots. I was playing with a guy once who took a wild swing with a 3-wood or something, and he hit the ground behind the ball and the divot flapped over the ball. He stood there looking down the fairway, and we were on the ground laughing because his ball was underneath the divot, and he didn't even know that he did not hit the ball.

It is going to be right down my alley. These guys not only are my heroes, but they are also very, very close friends, and good friends. We will be giving each other the needle quite a bit. It is going to be one of the highlights of my golf career, I can tell you that.

If you can't enjoy the time between golf shots, then you are going to have a pretty difficult life because most of you life is the time spent in-between.
golf cycle-of-life next-day
One of the most fascinating things about golf is how it reflects the cycle of life. No matter what you shoot - the next day you have to go back to the first tee and begin all over again and make yourself into something.
golf missing balls
I didn't miss the putt. I made the putt. The ball missed the hole.

I've always had a pretty quick focus and that's what is needed at this type of event. This event is tailor made for me and fits my style of play.

I wanted Jack Lemmon to make that cut at the AT&T as badly as I've ever wanted anything.

I was on the 15th tee. I just eagled 13 and birdied 14. Nicklaus birdied 10. I thought 'This is cool, Jack and I are now tied.' As I hit the water on 15, I looked over at the scoreboard and just as one guy was finished putting up the 'S-E-N' (in Jacobsen), the other guy was taking down the 'J-A-C.'
