More quotes by Jack Nicklaus
Augusta National is a young man's golf course, and you really need a young man's nerves to play on it.
Jack Nicklaus
Pete Dye introduced me to golf course design back in the 1960's. He came to my hometown Columbus, Ohio to work on The Golf Club.

The holes are numbered.
Jack Nicklaus
Golf was my vehicle to competition and I can't play if I can't compete.
Jack Nicklaus
Grand Haven will challenge the skilled player yet, because of some width to the holes, it also will be a fun course that the average player can enjoy.
Jack Nicklaus
Resolve never to quit, never to give up, no matter what the situation.
Jack Nicklaus

Jack Nicklaus
Pressure is what you live for...if you are going to be successful in life, you're going to have pressure.

Temper is the one thing you can't get rid of by losing it.
Jack Nicklaus
My ability to concentrate and work toward that goal has been my greatest asset.
Jack Nicklaus
But if I played well and prepared myself properly, then all I had to do was control myself and put myself in a position to win.
Jack Nicklaus
I'd rather be two strokes ahead going into the last day than two strokes behind. Having said that, it's probably easier to win coming from behind. There is no fear in chasing. There is fear in being chased.
Jack Nicklaus
I think you've all heard my story about my daughter and how we felt Children's Hospital saved her life when she was less than a year old. I won't go through all of the details of that.
Jack Nicklaus
I've said many times before that Pebble Beach is a wonderful thinking-man's golf course. That is why it is such a great U.S. Open venue.
Jack Nicklaus
I play the Father/Son every year on the PGA TOUR Champions. I split it between Jackie and Gary as my playing partners.
Jack Nicklaus
I never worried about money, except that I knew that all I had to worry about was golf. As long as I could play, I was going to make money.
Jack Nicklaus
How people keep correcting us when we are young! There is always some bad habit or other they tell us we ought to get over. Yet most bad habits are tools to help us through life.
