Image
When you see an opportunity, you practice and work, at least from sunup to sundown.
Ben Hogan
Image
The only thing a golfer needs is more daylight.
Ben Hogan
Image
You only hit a straight ball by accident. The ball is going to move right or left every time you hit it, so you had better make it go one way or the other.
Ben Hogan
Image
May thy ball lie in green pastures, and not in still waters.
Ben Hogan
Image
A shot that goes in the cup is pure luck, but a shot to within two feet of the flag is skill.
Ben Hogan
Image
I see no reason that a golf course cannot be played in 18 birdies. Just because no one has ever done that doesn't mean it can't be done.
Ben Hogan
Image
Good golf begins with a good grip.
Ben Hogan
Image
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.

The most important shot in golf is the next one.
Ben Hogan
Image
Golf is not a game of good shots. It's a game of bad shots.
Ben Hogan
Image
There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection.
Ben Hogan
Image
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
Image
I always outworked everybody. Work never bothered me as it bothers some people.
Ben Hogan
Image
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
Image
Shoot a lower score than everybody else.
Ben Hogan
Image
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
Image
This is a game of misses. The guy who misses the best is going to win.
Ben Hogan
Image
Hit the ball up to the hole... You meet a better class of people up there.
Ben Hogan
Image
Every day that you don't practice is one day longer before you achieve greatness
Ben Hogan

Placing the ball in the right position for the next shot is eighty percent of winning golf.
