“Putting is a fascinating, aggravating, cunning, mysterious, frustrating, maddening, sensible, nonsensical, simple, complicated, cerebral, physical, spontaneous, studied, elusive, attainable, honorable, and dishonorable game.”— Amy Alcott
“Hitting a golf ball and putting have nothing in common. They're two different games. You work all your life to perfect a repeating swing that will get you to the greens, and then you have to try to do something that is totally unrelated. There shouldn't be any cups, just flag sticks. And then the man who hit the most fairways and greens in regulation would be the winner.”— George Archer
“Bad putting is due more to the effect the green has upon the player than it has upon the ball.”— Bobby Jones
