In golf, the customs and etiquette and decorum are as important as the rules of play.
You can, legally, possibly hit and kill a fellow golfer with a ball, and there will not be a lot of trouble because the other golfers will refuse to stop and be witnesses because they will want to keep playing.
I am very proud of the fact I do not cheat when I'm playing golf.
Phil [Mickelson] has done a great job. He's a great player and he's conducted himself very well through the years. He's been a good ambassador for the game. He hasn't won in a while, but he still has time, and it wouldn't surprise me if he won again.
Golf requires only a few simple Rules and Regulations to guide the players in the true nature of its sporting appeal. The spirit of the game is its own referee.
Few golfers are born with the natural talent for hitting the ball, but every player is blessed with the God-given ability to throw a club.
I never kick my ball in the rough or improve my lie in a sand trap. For that I have a caddie.
Golf is a great way for someone to learn discipline, responsibility and sportsmanship.?
Golfers don't fist fight. They cuss a bit. But they wouldn't punch anything or anybody. They might hurt their hands and have to change their grip.
It's so ridiculous to see a golfer with a one foot putt and everybody is saying "Shhh" and not moving a muscle. Then we allow nineteen year-old kids to face a game-deciding free throw with seventeen thousand people yelling.
This thing is for the game of golf, yeah, but trust me, the Europeans don't have that mentality.
