In Golf, As In Life,

What Did I Want With Prestige? The British Open Paid The Winner $600 In American Money. A Man Would Have To Be Two Hundred Years Old At That Rate To Retire From Golf.

The Fairways Were So Narrow You Had To Walk Down Them Single File.

Nobody Asked How You Looked, Just What You Shot.

The Fact That Slammin' Sammy Couldn't Win The Open Made It All The More Valuable For The Players That Did Win. Gave It A Special Quality. I'd Say A Part Of The Sheen On That Trophy Comes From My Sweat.

I've Gotten Rid Of The Yips Four Times But They Hang In There. You Know Those Two-foot Downhill Putts With A Break? I'd Rather See A Rattlesnake.
