Finishing up another weekend of the Nextgengolf City Tour action in the heat of the summer, you may need some extra motivation to skip out on the beach to hit a few balls (and make sure your next round goes as planned). With that in mind, here is a look back on some of the best motivational golf quotes to be coined over the years.
- “Golf is a puzzle without an answer. I’ve played the game for 50 years and I still haven’t the slightest idea of how to play.” - Gary Player
- “Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots - but you have to play the ball where it lies.” - Bobby Jones
- “Golf gives you an insight into human nature, your own as well as your opponent's.“ - Grantland Rice
- "If profanity had an influence on the flight of the ball, the game of golf would be played far better than it is." - Horace G. Hutchinson
- “As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round.” - Ben Hogan
- "If you're caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God can hit a 1-iron." - Lee Trevino
- “Be decisive. A wrong decision is generally less disastrous than indecision.” - Bernhard Langer
- “This is a game of misses. Whoever misses the best is going to win.” - Ben Hogan
- “No matter how good you get you can always get better and that’s the exciting part” - Tiger Woods
- "Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into an even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose." - Winston Churchill
