"Keep your sense of humor. There's enough stress in the rest of your life not to let bad shots ruin a game you're supposed to enjoy."
"You could argue that if the average golfer plays a golf course with 430-yard par 4s and they always miss the green, that's good practice. It's definitely great practice to play a course that's too long for you."

More quotes by Amy Alcott
"I don't think the philosophy really changes between men and women. I think golf courses need to become more distance-friendly overall. I think golf courses almost need to develop a more generic set of tees instead of calling them black, blue, red or whatever."
"Concentrate, play your game, and don't be afraid to win."
"Golf is a spiritual game. It's like Zen. You have to let your mind take over."
"Don't give advice unless you're asked."
"What makes a great golf course is continuity and variety: right-to-left holes, left-to-right holes."
