“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.” WinningLosesDarkPayGolfShouldersGolfersPrecariousCaddies Book:Thirty Years of Championship Golf: The Life and Times of Gene Sarazen Source: Thirty Years of Championship Golf: The Life and Times of Gene Sarazen
“My caddie 'Stovepipe' tried to talk me into hitting a 3-wood. But I took out the turf rider (4-wood) instead. The moment I hit it, I felt something in my bones. Walter Hagen was playing with me and Bobby Jones was on the green. 21 people were behind the green. The sun was going down. I wasn't sure it had gone in the hole until I saw all 21 people jumping up and down.” PeopleMomentsFeltBehindsSunGoneSawsGreenGolfWoodsBonesHolesHittingJumpingUp And DownRidersTurfCaddies Author:Gene Sarazen
