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

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
I hate a hook. It nauseates me. I could vomit when I see one. It's like a rattlesnake in your pocket.
Ben Hogan
I'm glad I brought this course, this monster, to its knees.
Ben Hogan
Your name is the most important thing you own. Don't ever do anything to disgrace or cheapen it.
Ben Hogan
The most important shot in golf is the next one.
Ben Hogan
If you can't outplay them, outwork them.
