Arnold Palmer
I was national amateur champion. I was 24 years old. My father was there, and I couldn't wait to see him, and my mother. I went up and was waiting for all the accolades, and my mom was teary and happy and my dad looked at me and said, Well, boy, you did good, and that was it.

If Tiger Woods slamming his club into the ground is the biggest worry wehave, our sport isinprettygood shape.
Arnold Palmer
I suppose I could think of a lot of things to say about the fact that I still play. But I don't really need to. I can tell you this, that I enjoy it. I still enjoy it. I like to get out in the air and I like to walk and I like to do the things that are involved in playing golf.

I would not have been able to accomplish a lot of what I did professionally had I not learned to fly myself and owned an airplane. For example, I was able to fly to an exhibition for the day and be back home in time for dinner. I never would have been able to do that flying commercially.
Arnold Palmer
There's some good news, too, and the good news is that the players [finally] have become more aware of the fact that we [in golf] need sponsors, and we need the good will that is created by the players being, let's say, cooperative with the sponsors - meaning friendly.
Arnold Palmer
I would never felt good if I hadn't experienced losing, because losing is part of your life. And it something that if I could teach people to understand that I think it could help them a lot.
Arnold Palmer
When you get into competition and get under pressure, and get over that ball and are looking at it, and know you have to hit it, it is having that system to depend on to get that ball to where you want it to be.
Arnold Palmer
I'm particularly proud of anything the House and the Senate agree on.
Arnold Palmer
The thing I probably love the most is driving out with the championship trophy under my arm.
Arnold Palmer
I like the Miami because I could play golf all winter.
Arnold Palmer
I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win.
Arnold Palmer
I've always been a big thinker that the more international competition that we create through sports the better relationships we'll have with countries.
Arnold Palmer
When I was playing in a junior tournament one time, I missed a short putt and threw my putter into the trees. I went on to win the tournament and later, instead of my dad congratulating me, he told me that if I ever threw a club again, I'd never play in another golf tournament. I haven't thrown a club since.
Arnold Palmer
As long as I can stay competitive and have fun doing what I'm doing, I guess I'll keep doing it.
Arnold Palmer
If you can see it, you can hit it and if you can hit it, you can hole it.
Arnold Palmer
