GOLF QUOTES
If you are caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God can hit a 1-iron.
Lee Trevino
Success in golf depends less on strength of body than upon strength of mind and character.
Arnold Palmer
“The road to success is always under construction.”
Arnold Palmer
“Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated; it satisfies the soul and frustrates the intellect. It is at the same time rewarding and maddening – and it is without a doubt the greatest game mankind has ever invented.”
Arnold Palmer
“Winning isn’t everything, but wanting it is.”
Arnold Palmer
“I never rooted against an opponent, but I never rooted for him either.”
Arnold Palmer
“Putting is like wisdom – partly a natural gift and partly the accumulation of experience.”
Arnold Palmer
“When people ask what’s driven me all these years, I always give the same answer. It’s you.”
Arnold Palmer
“Success in this game depends less on strength of body than strength of mind and character.”
Arnold Palmer
“The more I practice the luckier I get.”
Arnold Palmer
“You must play boldly to win.”
Arnold Palmer
“Always make a total effort, even when the odds are against you.”
Arnold Palmer
“What do I mean by concentration? I mean focusing totally on the business at hand and commanding your body to do exactly what you want it to do.”
Arnold Palmer
"Success depends almost entirely on how effectively you learn to manage the game's two ultimate adversaries: the course and yourself."
Jack Nicklaus
"I never hit a shot, not even in practice, without having a very sharp, in-focus picture of it in my head."
Jack Nicklaus
"The worse you're performing, the more you must work mentally and emotionally. The greatest and toughest art in golf is "playing badly well." All the true greats have been masters at it."
Jack Nicklaus
"Confidence is the most important single factor in this game, and no matter how great your natural talent, there is only one way to obtain and sustain it: work."
Jack Nicklaus
"A kid grows up a lot faster on the golf course. Golf teaches you how to behave."
Jack Nicklaus
"Don't be too proud to take lessons. I'm not."
Jack Nicklaus
"Nobody - but nobody - has ever become really proficient at golf without practice, without doing a lot of thinking and then hitting a lot of shots. It isn't so much a lack of talent; it's a lack of being able to repeat good shots consistently that frustrates most players. And the only answer to that is practice."
Jack Nicklaus
"There is no room in your mind for negative thoughts."
Jack Nicklaus
“No matter how good you get you can always get better and that’s the exciting part.”
Tiger Woods
“I mean, as an athlete, as a competitor, you have to have that belief in yourself.”
Tiger Woods
“You’ve got to stay patient, stay in the moment, keep grinding, … You never know what can happen."
Tiger Woods
"Happiness is a long walk with a putter."
Greg Norman
"Setting goals for your game is an art. The trick is in setting them at the right level - neither too low nor too high. A good goal should be lofty enough to inspire hard work, yet realistic enough to provide solid hope of attainment."
Greg Norman
"Play the shot you've got the best chance of playing well."
Greg Norman
"When you're playing poorly, you start thinking too much. That's when you confuse yourself."
Greg Norman
"Every time you lose, you think that life's unfair. You think of the bad breaks. But when you're winning and playing well, you still get those bad breaks, only you overcome them. It just depends on how strong your mind is."
Greg Norman
“I look into their eyes, shake their hand, pat their back, and wish them luck, but I am thinking, 'I am going to bury you.”
Seve Ballesteros
“I'd like to see the fairways more narrow. Then everyone would have to play from the rough, not just me.”
Seve Ballesteros
“There are probably some things I could do to keep my flexibility up, but I'd rather smoke, drink diet Cokes and eat.”
John Daly
“I've got the drinkers and the smokers and the eaters on my side.”
John Daly
"Golf is not about the quality of your good shots, it is about the quality of your bad shots."
Nick Faldo
"It goes without saying that it is no good having a perfect setup, perfect grip and perfect golf swing if the whole thing is misaligned. It sounds obvious but many players simply do not spend enough time getting themselves on target."
Nick Faldo
"Be decisive. A wrong decision is generally less disastrous than indecision."
Bernhard Langer
"It's not life or death it's a game and at the end of the game there is going to be a winner and a loser."
Bernhard Langer
"Competition is healthy. It makes you work harder and strive for more and try to find that extra one or two percent in your game that you could possibly improve."
Bernhard Langer
"If you don't believe you can make every putt, why bother trying?"
Ernie Els
"You check into the hotel and see you're booked for seven nights. But you know you might be leaving in a day or two. It's exciting for the fans. But you're on edge. And you're on edge the whole round."
Ernie Els
"When you're prepared, you're more confident. When you have a strategy, you're more comfortable."
Fred Couples
"You don't know what pressure is until you play for five bucks with only two bucks in your pocket."
Lee Trevino
"Everybody teaches a system. I just try to shoot where I'm aiming. I play by sight and feel not by technical thoughts."
Fred Couples
"As far as swing and techniques are concerned, I don't know diddly squat. When I'm playing well, I don't even take aim."
Fred Couples
"I caddied for a guy who was a very good player, and he gave me a set of clubs, just a starter set: 5-iron, 7-iron, 9-iron, putter and driver. I just loved it. How I developed my swing was to just grab a club and start banging balls."
Fred Couples
"I've seen the bottom and I know the difference between good golf and bad golf."
David Duval
"It's easy at times to win golf tournaments and shoot 59, and sometimes it's hard to post an 85."
David Duval
"Confidence comes from hard work. It comes from facing different situations and making putts. It comes from knowing you've worked on the right things, so when you get under the gun, you can execute what you've practiced."
David Duval
"I kept telling myself this word, process. Focus on my process, don't care about the result."
Rory McIlroy
"There are subtle things you can do without crossing the line. If I see I've got up my opponent's nose, I will be over the moon. Job done."
Ian Poulter
"The object of golf is not just to win. It is to play like a gentleman, and win."
Phil Mickelson
"A great shot is when you pull it off. A smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it."
Phil Mickelson
"I would rather try a shot to win than play safe and finish second."
Phil Mickelson
"The only way to win tournaments is with the short game. Over half your shots out here are within 30 or 40 yards. Ball striking is where I'm trying to improve, yes, but more to eliminate big numbers than make birdies."
Phil Mickelson
"You don't win tournaments by playing well and thinking poorly."
Lee Westwood
"If I have a swing, I have a shot."
Bubba Watson
"It's a marriage. If I had to choose between my wife and my putter, well, I'd miss her."
Gary Player
"To succeed in life one must have determination and must be prepared to suffer during the process. If one isn't prepared to suffer during adversities, I don't really see how he can be successful."
Gary Player
"The more I work and practice, the luckier I seem to get."
Gary Player
"A strong mind is one of the key components that separates the great from the good."
Gary Player
"We create success or failure on the course primarily by our thoughts."
Gary Player
"I am tired of all these golfers who are happy with second place. The only one who will like you if you come in second place is your wife and your dog. And that is only if you have a good wife and a good dog."
Gary Player
"Pressure is playing for ten dollars when you don't have a dime in your pocket."
Lee Trevino
"You can make a lot of money in this game. Just ask my ex-wives. Both of them are so rich that neither of their husbands work."
Lee Trevino
"The greatest thing about tomorrow is, I will be better than I am today...There is no such thing as a setback. The lessons I learn today I will apply tomorrow, and I will be better."
Tiger Woods
"My mind is my biggest asset. I expect to win every tournament I play."
