I don't see myself as a full-time broadcaster. I've done some of it, and I enjoy it, but I don't think I should try to make a career out of it.

I quit flying myself last year and that was difficult for me because I enjoy it as much as playing golf. It was an adjustment sitting in the back of the plane, rather than at the controls, but I've grown accustomed to it and enjoy reading a book, doing some work or challenging my wife to a game of dominos.

Had I not become a professional golfer, I think I would have pursued some type of career in aviation.

There is no king of golf. Never has been, never will be. Golf is the most democratic game on Earth... It punishes and exalts us all with splendid equal opportunity.

I've stated my position, and that is that we do not need a contraption to play the game of golf. I would hope that we'd play under one set of rules, and those rules would include a ban on the long putter hooked to the body in some way, shape or form.

I never heard Jack Nicklaus say, 'I'm a great player,' or Tiger Woods, as a matter of fact. They just get out and do it. And I think that's far more appealing... than talking about how good you are.

Concentration, Confidence, Competitive urge, Capacity for enjoyment.

I never quit trying. I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win.

I can't be casual about losing. I always think I have a chance to win until winning is absolutely impossible.

My problem happens to be near-sightedness - inability to see distance. And this is pretty tough on a golfer.
