  • Nobody ever heard Jack Nicklaus say 'I don't know' about anything.

  • If you don't like my announcing, you don't like me.

  • Match play really exposes your character and how much of a will to win you have in your heart.

  • I don't want to brag, but I do more homework on the course than any other announcer. I chart the greens to get all the breaks. I walk down into the greenside bunkers. I walk into the fairway bunkers to see whether a player can reach the green from them.

  • Nobody ever heard Jack Nicklaus say "I don't know" about anything.

  • The mental aspect of golf is what makes golf such a great sport.

  • Pebble is a piece of sacred ground. They say it's the greatest meeting of land and water in the world. This course was heaven designed - just the way it fits on the land.

  • It's not what you accomplish in life that matters; it's what you overcome.

  • Every day I try to tell myself that this is going to be fun today. I try to put myself in a great frame of mind before I go out - then I screw it up with the first shot.

  • I'm searching for the perfect swing. I'm searching for something that's not there. I tried twetny different things today and nobody else out there would have done that. This game is too tough. If I'd have known, I'd have taken up tennis or something. I have a chance. But if you're a betting guy don't bet on me.

  • Seve wore his emotions on his sleeve. You could see how much the guy cared about winning.

  • The dollars aren't so important... once you have them.

  • I played so bad, I got a get-well card from the IRS.

  • I don't think anywhere is there a symbiotic relationship between caddie and player like there is in golf.

  • Look, I'm not trying to be critical when I'm on the air.
