Golf isn't just my business, it's my hobby.

His nerve, his memory, and I can't remember the third thing.

How can they beat me? I've been struck by lightning, had two back operations, and been divorced twice.

I adore the game of golf. I won't ever retire.

I have an orthopedic pillow that's made out of a sponge material. I have a plate in my throat, and I have to be careful or I could end up with a bad neck in the morning. That pillow is a must everywhere I go.

I met Jesse Owens once. He was a remarkable individual, and I have tremendous respect for what he did in the Olympics under the circumstances.

I never played much golf as a kid. I caddied quite a bit but never got serious into golf until about age 15.
Lee Trevino

I stay away from the telephone if at all possible.

I still sweat. My guts are still grinding out there. Sometimes I have enough cotton in my mouth to knit a sweater.

I think a lot of Jim Thorpe, the Olympian, and his accomplishments.

I use an Arnold Palmer putter that was probably built back in 1954.

I'm actually a very quiet person off the golf course. I talk 150 miles per hour when I'm at the course, but when in private I very seldom ever open my mouth.

I'm going to win so much money this year, my caddie will make the top twenty money winner's list.

I'm not out there just to be dancing around. I expect to win every time I tee up.

I'm not scared of very much. I've been hit by lightning and been in the Marine Corps for four years.
Lee Trevino

I've played golf with three U.S presidents.
Lee Trevino

I've traveled the world and been about everywhere you can imagine. There's not anything I'm scared of except my wife.
Lee Trevino

If I could do anything over, I'd have spent more time with my first set of children. I would have taken more quality time with them, for sure.
Lee Trevino

If you are caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God can hit a 1-iron.
