Billy Mayfair Quotes (17 Quotes)


    We played about five holes with no wind, and then it started blowing. We played pretty much the whole back side with at least a 10-15 mph wind. It plays tricky. We just don't know the golf course well enough yet.

    Nah. It's tougher to travel with. Besides, they're dorky.

    It's not that long. You have to drive it straight, hit a lot of greens. If you miss it and you manage to putt well, that seems right up my alley.

    You may see guys show up next year here with two drivers. Guys keep changing the golf course, and we keep thinking of ways to make it easier to play.

    I think you have to hit it left today. If you carried it, it's still not going to go through the fairway too much. A couple of the long hitters can fly right over them, but most of us are going to have to play it left today.


    I would have to say anyone within five shots of the lead has a pretty good shot if the wind blows. If it stays calm, maybe not.

    I met a gentleman who gave me a golf ball from when I finished one of my matches there. It was old and yellow.

    Any more on this tour, it's better to be aggressive than anything else. I'll play the same way tomorrow -- as aggressive as I can. But not stupid.

    I guess you could call it gut-check time. I had lost all confidence in my putting, and on the PGA Tour, that's what it always comes down to.

    They weren't unfair bounces. I have no one to blame but myself. The worst part of it is I hit two good shots to get near the green both times. To walk away with two 6s is obviously disappointing.

    I think the golf course is based on tradition. By changing the golf course, I think you lose a little bit of that tradition. We'll see how it plays out this year. Maybe it's time for a new tradition to be written too. Who knows

    You can kid about Phil, but he's one of the most intelligent persons I've ever met.

    I like the golf course. It's not standing there and shooting darts all the time. Yeah, we've had some high winds, and conditions have been tough. I just like playing that way.

    We grew up together, and I have a picture of him and I at the Junior Worlds. He won, and I think I finished fourth or fifth. Then we played against each other when he went to (Louisiana State University) and I went to (Arizona State University). I've known David just about my whole life. He's playing great, and I'm excited about playing with him tomorrow.

    I did putt well, ... I didn't hit it quite as well today. I didn't drive it as well. The par-threes is when I hit it close and made birdies.

    It's not just standing up there and shooting darts at the green all the time.

    If it stays pretty dry out there, the tournament is still won and lost on the greens. Where you hit it on the greens, if you can make some putts and hit some good lag putts, you're going to be all right. The greens, I still think, make the whole golf course.
