More quotes by 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

Ben Hogan

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 never played a round when I didn't learn something new about the game.
Ben Hogan
When you see an opportunity, you practice and work, at least from sunup to sundown.
Ben Hogan
Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club, don't you?
Ben Hogan
There's no set time or schedule for developing one's skills as a professional golfer, and it certainly doesn't come overnight. It's a muscle-memory exercise that comes over time.
Ben Hogan
The average golfer's problem is not so much the lack of ability as it is lack of knowledge about what he should be doing
