“Golf is not a wrestle with Bogey; it is not a struggle with your mortal foe; it is a physiological, psychological and moral fight with your self; it is a test of mastery over self; and the ultimate and irreducible element of the game is to determine which of the players is the more worthy combatant.” SelfFightingGamesMoralStrugglePlayerElementsTestsUltimateGolfDetermineWorthyPsychologicalMortalsMasteryFoePhysiological Book:The Mystery of Golf Source: The Mystery of Golf
