I would say my first golf memory was asking who Arnold Palmer was when he was always on the Pennzoil commercials. When I was a little kid I watched a lot of sports, but I didn't watch a lot of golf, and this guy was always on a tractor.
I am so fidgety - I swear I have ADD - and I always need to be doing something or being outside, just playing sports.
I wasn't put on the cover of 'Sports Illustrated' as a plus-size model; I was put on the cover of 'Sports Illustrated' as a model, as a rookie, as Ashley Graham.
Swimming is one of the hardest sports.
I would love to be associated with some sports organization. I was a journalism major. That's kind of intriguing, to do something in the political-commentary arena.
My first car was a Chevy Cavalier. My dad somehow convinced me that it was a hot sports car because it was red.
I grew up doing a lot of extreme sports.
Funding for sports (and the arts) are often the first things facing the chop in difficult times.

My schedule has slowed a little. I've cut back on some of my assignments. But I still have the enthusiasm for the sports world that I had 38 years ago.
I told another ESPN friend here, I love all sports. I can't think of any I don't love. I've even come to appreciate cricket. Maybe I could play a sportswriter. I don't know. Anything in the sports realm is appealing.
Sport is a wonderful metaphor for life. Of all the sports that I played - skiing, baseball, fishing - there is no greater example than golf, because you're playing against yourself and nature.
I'm a big sports guy - golf, tennis, baseball, basketball, snowboarding - and I love games.
Ethnic prejudice has no place in sports, and baseball must recognize that truth if it is to maintain stature as a national game.
I love to get home and hang out with my family. My brothers and I love spending time at the beach. I enjoy doing all kinds of surf sports and keeping healthy.
My whole life I've actually been training to be a stunt man without realising it. I've always loved extreme sports, and I now I get paid for it.
In the America that I grew up in, men of Asia placed last in the hierarchy of manhood. They were invisible in the high-testosterone arenas of politics, big business, and sports. On television and in the movies, they were worse than invisible. They were embarrassing. We were embarrassing.

I love sports, as all Bostonians seem to. I love books and movies, as all writers seem to.
People here don't identify themselves by their sports team.
All good sports reporters know that the best stories are in the loser's locker room.
Museums are like sports stadiums, hotels and hospitals: they are in the category of captive-audience dining.
I mean, sports are big, big, big business.
When I was writing or competing in individual sports, it felt unfulfilling and lonely. When I was able to find a group of people I believed in and liked, that all worked in pursuit of a common goal, it felt incredibly rewarding.
I got into sports because that was a way to prove your masculinity. I was good at it.
The Olympic Games must not be an end in itself, they must be a means of creating a vast programme of physical education and sports competitions for all young people.
Companies that support sports developmental programs in our communities should also be applauded.
If you're a sports fan, it is really cool when you see the best-on-best for hockey at the Olympics.
