I remember. That’s the year I won at Augusta. That’s the year I won three tournaments going into Augusta.

I just hate to see what’s happening today with golf clubs that I consider to be illegal, … I’d stop the grooves being so deep (on the ball), and I’d stop the trampoline effect in...

[In his 1993 autobiography] To Be the Best, … What I have learned about myself is that I am an animal when it comes to achievement and wanting success. There is never enough success for...

I try to work with God as a partner.

It just shows you that when you take the best players in the world, that kind of thing can happen, … They are all pumped up.

If there’s one man in the world who could play two men, it would be Tiger. In my mind, Furyk is going to play.

When you’ve got two guys 1-up with two to play, you automatically think, ‘we’ve got it’, especially after they’d battled their hearts out to get back in those matches.

When you get to 70, if you can break 80, it’s a victory.

You know, son, you really need to lose some weight. Next year, when I see you here, I hope to see some great improvement.

[But wouldn’t it benefit Els, I asked, to prepare for the three U.S.-based majors by flying in two or three weeks early to adjust to the time difference and get used to the different playing...

We’ve obviously got to forget about that and now go on to the best of our ability.

If you don’t hit it far enough, go pump some iron.

Golf benefited from today. Congratulations to the U.S.A. That putt that Chris holed on the last, I really take my hat off to him. They played better.

As we all know, … Golf is a puzzle without an answer.

Isn’t that amazing? He took heed of my advice, and I think it’s fantastic. He looks great, he’s strong and he’s swinging the club much smoother.

Arnie played 50 years and quit, so maybe I’ll play 51 and hang it up.

As President Eisenhower once said to me, America is a global society. I think that everybody in the world should be thinking about it as a global society. The Presidents Cup is played in different...

Ernie is as tough as can be, and I think his performance in the last two majors left him highly motivated. I wouldn’t be surprised if he won at St. Andrews.

You have to be there and say, well, how is this possible.

That loss was to breed an independence, a toughness of spirit, and an awareness of adversity and discipline that have never left me,

If there’s a golf course in heaven, it’s like this. I’m in no hurry to tee off but I hope I’m the head pro some day.

If it did end up in a tie, it has been phenomenal golf. It could happen. If it did, so be it.

Any time you have two Presidents Cups in a row and you go to the 18th green, I mean, golf is the winner,

Obviously shooting your age really depends on both how old you are and how good you are. I would say that a pro should be able to shoot his or her age in their mid...

Nobody has swept the Grand Slam in a single year, but I had a real go at pulling it off. Woods won three majors in 2000. Hogan got three in 1953 and didn’t play the...

I’m 70, I hit a drive 280 yards the other day. I never hit a ball 280 in my life. I don’t know where we’re going. They’re going to hit balls over 400 yards. We...

I thought when I get to 70, I would be sitting on the ranch and doing less, and I’m doing more. I would say, with all things equal, five more years.

All in all, … it doesn’t matter whether you’re a Masters champion teeing off here this week or you haven’t played well recently; it’s what you do this week.

Arnold (Palmer) played 50 times. I’d like to play 51 times and then hang it up.

He is some competitor,

I see it going right down the line again.

Visualize winning.

The more I practice, the luckier I get.

It was calling for a real good match.

I never was really concerned about that. The soil is the same here as it is back in South Africa or Australia.

There is so much about him to admire. At 30, Tiger is unquestionably golf’s best athlete. Nobody is as mentally tough. He dresses beautifully. What a smile. Incredible all-around talent. Abundant with class. Superb role...

I want to play one more than Arnie. I want to get to 51.

Being up one point is irrelevant. It’s like a mile race and you’re 50 yards ahead. There’s such a long way to go.

The harder you work, the luckier you get.

Golf is such a humbling game.

Golf is a puzzle without an answer. I’ve played the game for 40 years and I still haven’t the slightest idea how to play.

It was a massive blow to lose your No. 2 player. We’ve got to do the best we can.

Everything just sort of jived, as they say, into place.

They wanted to play together. They’re good friends.

It’s a good idea for future Presidents Cups to have a reserve ready to play. The people want to see the match played as scheduled.

It’s exactly the same. You wait until the tournament starts. You’ll hear the cheers. It will be great.

That putt Chris made, I take my hat off to him, … What a day’s golf.

Guys, when you get to 70, you’re allowed a mulligan.

It’s a strange game, … Today you shoot 66. Tomorrow you shoot 73. It changes within hours.

Each shot is important.
