Even Before You Step Up

My Grandson Sam Saunders Has Been Playing Golf Since He Could Hold A Club And I Spent A Lot Of Time With Him Over The Years. Like My Father Taught Me, I Showed Him The Fundamentals Of The Game And Helped Him Make Adjustments As He And His Game Matured Over The Years.

I've Always Made A Total Effort, Even When The Odds Seemed Entirely Against Me. I Never Quit Trying; I Never Felt That I Didn't Have A Chance To Win.

Golf Is Deceptively Simple, Endlessly Complicated. A Child Can Play It Well And A Grown Man Can Never Master It. It Is Almost A Science, Yet It Is A Puzzle With No Answer.

I Think, First Of All, I'm Very Proud Of Sam Saunders In General. I Am Happy To See Him Playing Well And His Performance Has Been Good. He Is Coming On As I Hoped He Would At This Stage Of His Life.he Is A Fine Young Man As Well As A Fine Golfer. He Is Doing Things The Right Way.

What Separates Great Players From The Good Ones Is Not So Much Ability As Brain Power And Emotional Equilibrium.
