Tiger Woods quotes on masters

I mean, this is something that every kid dreams of playing in, and hopefully one day even winning, if you’re lucky enough.” – Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods quotes on practice
“I’ve had moments where I didn’t hit the ball very good coming in, and you’ve got to turn it around.

“You ever go up to the tee and say, ‘Don’t hit it left, don’t hit it right’? That’s your conscious mind. My body knows how to play golf. I’ve trained it to do that. It’s just a matter of keeping my conscious mind out of it.” – Tiger Woods” – Tiger Woods
