A Quote by Lee Trevino

I got no pride on the hole. It's a par-5 and I play it that way. A four is a birdie.

Certainly, if you can't manage your game, you can't play tournament golf. You continually have to ask yourself what club to play, where to aim it, whether to accept a safe par or to try to go for a birdie. You can't play every hole the same way. I never could.

Ben Hogan

You know what's funny, I really hate Par 3's. I feel like you have to be perfect from jumpstreet. But on Par 5's, you can mess up a little bit, but you still have time to adjust before you get to the hole and still end up with a birdie or a par.

Robert Horry

If you can hit your 3- and 5-woods with confidence from the fairway, par 5s become birdie opportunities, and 420-yard par 4s are a lot less scary.

Ernie Els

The reason the Road Hole at St. Andrews is the most difficult par 4 in the world is that it was designed as a par 6.

Ben Crenshaw

How did I make a twelve on a par five hole? It's simple - I missed a four foot putt for an eleven.

Arnold Palmer

I just felt like if I just kept making birdie - I think the 18th hole is a weird hole as a playoff, especially when you're trying to beat daylight.

Justin Thomas

Human pride is a strange thing; it cannot easily be suppressed, and if you stop up hole A will peep forth again in a twinkling from another hole B, and if this is closed it is ready to come out at hole C, and so on.

Georg C. Lichtenberg

The par putts sometimes are bigger than the birdie putts.

Jimmy Walker

I think it helps to know where you're at. I don't want to be coming down 18 knowing I need to make par, and trying to force a birdie or doing something stupid.

Collin Morikawa

I was from North Carolina, so as a youngster all of my mind games about golf were always, If I make this I win The Masters, if I hole this par putt I win The Masters. So it was a great thrill to play there.

Ray Floyd

I was from North Carolina, so as a youngster all of my mind games about golf were always, 'If I make this I win The Masters, if I hole this par putt I win The Masters.' So it was a great thrill to play there.

Raymond Floyd

The toughest opponent of all is Old Man Par. He's a patient soul who never shoots a birdie and never incurs a bogey. And if you would travel the long road with him, you must be patient, too.
