To sink a six-foot putt with thirty million people looking over your shoulder, convince yourself that, if you miss it, you will be embarrassed and poor.

Jack Nicklaus

Pressure is when you've got thirty-five bucks riding on a four-foot putt and you've only got five dollars left.

Lee Trevino

A 3-foot putt can be more nerve-racking than a 9-foot putt because a 3-foot putt you should be getting in. A 9-footer, there's a chance it won't go in.

Lydia Ko

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

But, no, I don't feel my career has not been fulfilled because I didn't win the US Open. It's like the guy said: You going to crucify a man because he missed a putt to win a tournament? Does a three-foot putt mean his whole life? Another guy said, well, he couldn't win the big one. Well, Jesus, what do you call those others? What's big and what's small?

Sam Snead

No one cares what I think about a 6-foot putt. They care what Ian Baker-Finch thinks.

Ernie Johnson Jr.

People are always spewing this horseshit about how age doesn't matter. Well, it does matter! I'm thirty-five, and I'm happy to be thirty-five. I can't pretend I'm still a snot-nosed 21-year-old.

Had you been lying all along? Mum gently stroked my hair. I whispered into her shoulder. “I can’t go back. Not yet. I can’t leave.” And she held my head tight to her chest and wrapped her arms around me. “You don’t have to,” she said, rocking me. “You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do, not anymore.” And I cried.

Lucy Christopher

When Sam Snead was asked how to putt, he said, 'Putt for one hundred dollars'.

Bob Schieffer

I didn't become a caddie because I wanted to be a caddie. I was a caddie because that was how I could make money and feed myself. It was work. It was a dignified job.

Angel Cabrera

Ladies, stock and tend your hive, Trifle not at thirty-five; For, howe'er we boast and strive, Life declines from thirty-five; He that ever hopes to thrive Must begin by thirty-five.

Samuel Johnson

If ever I needed an eight foot putt, and everything I owned depended on it, I would want Arnold Palmer to putt for me.

Bobby Jones

I shot a wild elephant in Africa thirty yards from me, and it didn't hit the ground until it was right at my feet. I wasn't a bit scared. But a four foot putt scares me to death.

Sam Snead

I don't know why that putt hung on the edge. I'm a clean liver. It must be my caddie.

JoAnne Carner

I can't putt. The reasons are infinite. When lining up a putt, I can't remember if the ball always breaks to the ocean or to the valley or away from Pinnacle Peak. And because I took up the game in Minnesota, in what is often called Middle America, I also grew up asking, 'To which ocean does it break?'
