President Bush played golf yesterday and I understand Vice President Dick Cheney also got in a couple of strokes

I love it Practicing in Texas. You can find anything. You can practice rain, you can practice wind, you can practice on hard pan, you can practice on lush gold courses, you can find all the conditions you will ever encounter in Texas
Tom Kite
Golf is not sacred, and there is no use getting so gosh-darned solemn about it
Don Herold
Most people play a fair game of golf - If you watch them
Joey Adams
Golf is the only sport that a professional can enjoy playing with his friends. Can Larry Holmes enjoy fighting one of his friends?
Chi Chi Rodriguez
There isn't a flaw in his golf or his makeup. He will win more majors than Arnold Palmer and me combined. Somebody is going to dust my records. It might as well be Tiger, because he's such a great kid.
Jack Nicklaus
Jack Nicklaus was the first to bring in course management. He could go to a course and tell you within one stroke what was going to win. He used to set his sights on that because he could shoot it. He was the only player I know who, if he decided he wanted to win a tournament, could go out and do it. No one will ever be as popular as Arnold Palmer and no one will ever come close to Jack as a player
Lee Trevino
Until you play it, St. Andrews looks like the sort of real estate you couldn't give away
Sam Snead
You have to understand, I don't play golf for fun. It's my business. When the mailman starts delivering mail on his off day, that's when I'll start playing golf for the hell of it. I like to play in tournaments. There are many great courses around the world that I have never played that are next door to tournaments. I have not played them because I don't play for fun
Lee Trevino
Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don't you?
Ben Hogan
I couldn't wait for the sun to come up the next morning so that I could get out on the course again.
Ben Hogan
I did envisage being this successful as a player, but not all the hysteria around it off the golf course
Tiger Woods
Years ago I had a 1-iron I could hit 260 yards through a doorway. Now I can hit it through the keyhole
Lee Trevino
Yeah, but I'll be working as a marshal. I'll be helping your team find all the balls they drive into the rough
