Quotes from Gene Sarazen

Even when times were good, I realized that my earning power as a golf professional depended on too many ifs and putts.

The life of a professional golfer is precarious at best. Win, and they carry you to the clubhouse on their shoulders. Lose, and you pay the caddies in the dark.

I have been able to hope for the best, expect the worst, and take what comes along. If there has been one fundamental reason for my success, this is it.

I don't care what you say about me. Just spell the name right.
