More quotes by Ben Hogan
I play with friends, but we don't play friendly games.
Ben Hogan
When you see an opportunity, you practice and work, at least from sunup to sundown.
Ben Hogan
All other things being equal, greens break to the west.
Ben Hogan
Good golf begins with a good grip.
Ben Hogan
You never fight your eye when you look at a hole. If it looks one way, play it that way. Don't make a big deal out of an easy shot.
Ben Hogan
Certainly, if you can't manage your game, you can't play tournament golf. You continually have to ask yourself what club to play, where to aim it, whether to accept a safe par or to try to go for a birdie. You can't play every hole the same way. I never could.
Ben Hogan
A shot that goes in the cup is pure luck, but a shot to within two feet of the flag is skill.
Ben Hogan
I hate a hook. It nauseates me. I could vomit when I see one. It's like a rattlesnake in your pocket.
Ben Hogan
You hear stories about me beating my brains out practising, but the truth is, I was enjoying myself. I couldn't wait to get up in the morning, so I could hit balls. When I'm hitting the ball where I want, hard and crisply, it's a joy that very few people experience.
Ben Hogan
If you can't outplay them, outwork them.
Ben Hogan
I dreamed one night that I had 17 holes-in-one and one two, and when I woke up I was so goddam mad.
Ben Hogan
I have always felt and said that a man who can be a champion in one era could be a champion in any other era because he has what it takes to reach the top.
Ben Hogan
Hit the ball up to the hole... You meet a better class of people up there.
Ben Hogan
The only thing a golfer needs is more daylight.
Ben Hogan
I don't believe there is anything like a natural golf swing. A golf swing is an unnatural thing, and it has to be developed.
Ben Hogan
I never played a round when I didn't learn something new about the game.
Ben Hogan
Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don't you?
Ben Hogan
Your name is the most important thing you own. Don't ever do anything to disgrace or cheapen it.
Ben Hogan
There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection.
Ben Hogan
Placing the ball in the right position for the next shot is eighty percent of winning golf.
