Zitat des Tages über Golfer / Golfers:
Among golfers the putter is usually known as the payoff club and how right that is! Putting is in fact a game in itself.
People always say golfers don't smile. But there is so much psychology in golf so we have to be a bit robotic.
There are a number of golfers who are playing great golf in their 40s.
Some golfers, we are told, enjoy the landscape; but properly, the landscape shrivels and compresses into the grim, surrealistically vivid patch of grass directly under the golfer's eyes as he morosely walks toward where he thinks his ball might be.
I've said before that the Ryder Cup is not the European Tour versus the American Tour. It's Europe's best golfers against the US.

Race horses are like golfers, you're never sure how they're going to come out of the stalls. It's just - hopefully the horses come out of the race all right, just fit and ready to go again in the near future, but 3rd was good. It's paid for its hay.
Our view is that the very best data miners or statisticians can earn as much as the very best golfers or tennis players.

Only bad golfers are lucky. They're the ones bouncing balls off trees, curbs, turtles and cars. Good golfers have bad luck. When you hit the ball straight, a funny bounce is bound to be unlucky.
