Quotes
I've never been a very technical player. I don't get caught up in swing positions and mechanics. When I work on my swing... I'm looking for feels. You'll get better results-and often more distance-if you swing at eighty percent effort. I get all kinds of people telling me I have the best swing in the world-it's beautiful, it's effortless. But I know when that isn't true.
