chance hit perfect shoot shot swing time win
I'd like to shoot 59 before I'm 59. I've shot 60. I'd like to win the PGA, but I think that chance has passed. I'd like to hit a perfect shot each time I swing a club.

That's what I'm out here to do. Compete and win. It makes the winter months a whole lot better.

I hit the ball pretty close to the hole all day, ... It was an easy day to score. The wind wasn't blowing. The TPC of Dearborn, when the conditions are soft like this, if you're driving the ball half decently, you're going to do pretty well.

The scoring conditions were ideal with no wind and I played well today. It was a good ball-striking day but I could have putted a little better.

Muirfield without a wind is like a lady undressed. No challenge.

arnold ball bit carried early jack maybe names palmer played sam senior tour
This tour is name-driven, always has been and always will be. Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead carried the ball on the early part of the Senior Tour and they made it work. Then we had (Lee) Trevino come on and Jack (Nicklaus) played a little bit. We have to try a little bit harder, because maybe we don't have the names of that type.
