DAVID FEHERTY Quotations

It's how you deal with failure that determines how you achieve success.

We're back to where if Tiger plays well, he wins. And if he plays really well, he wins by eight. It's not the Big Five. It never was. It's a Big Four and a Giant, Humongous One.

He keeps himself in great shape, he's got a great attitude and is one of the hardest workers in the game. That'd be the last of my worries. When he's on he's really hard to beat. He could win any week now.

We're also still walking around with the same mental demons. A 4-foot putt to win will never get any less petrifying.

Hurling looks a bit like a cross between lacrosse and second degree murder.

The course is so long, I had to take the curvature of the Earth into consideration.

It's hard to tell who's going to win this week, but it probably won't be a big, fat guy.

I lost 150 lbs. if you include my wife.

Win and you are the superior being in all the universe; lose, and may the fleas of a million rodents, infect your every orifice.

I have got to do something that makes me focus on one thing, and so I will sit and listen to music, or I will read, or I will go and make ammunition in my workshop. I have just got to keep myself busy.

I don't want anybody to understand what my depression feels like because in order to understand it you have to have been there, and I don't want anybody else to go.

Everybody knows pretty much everything about me. I emptied all the skeletons out of my closet a long time ago.

I adore dogs to the extent I think they are much more important than human beings. I like your dog much more than I like you.

Worst haircut I've ever seen in my life. And I've had a few bad ones. It looks like he (John Daly) has a divot over each ear.

Never has my flabber been so completely gasted.

Playing Augusta is like playing a Salvador Dali landscape. I expected a clock to fall out of the trees and hit me in the face.

The hardest thing I ever did was get sober. I was drinking two and a half bottles of whiskey a day and taking 40 Vicodin. If I had known I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself.

Colin Montgomerie is a few French fries short of a Happy Meal.

I have a healthy disrespect for religion. I really do. When Columbus came to this country in 1492 he brought syphilis, diphtheria, tuberculosis, influenza and Christianity. The diseases were curable.

I hunt feral hogs. I try not to shoot creatures. That doesn't do anything for me. But big, nasty, smelly, bristly things with tusks that destroy everything that they touch. Yeah, I'll shoot them.

If god wanted people to believe in him, why'd he invent logic then?

That's the trouble with Nick. The only time he opens his mouth is to change feet.

I don't suffer from a mental illness, I live with it.

I didn't quit drinking because I was a bad drunk. I quit because I was a spectacular drunk. It got to be like a video game, where you get to the highest level and it's not even a challenge any more.

The world's No. 1 tennis player spends 90 percent of his time winning, while the world's No. 1 golfer spends 90 percent of his time losing. Golfers are great losers.

Watching Phil Mickelson play golf is like watching a drunk chasing a balloon near the edge of a cliff.

There's only one record that he cares about, one number that he's focused on forever: 19. It's what drives him.

There's nothing wrong with Mike -- he just hasn't clicked yet this year. There's time left and I expect him to win before the season's out.

It was the highlight of my career. The Ryder Cup is amazing. It is the most terrified I have ever been on a golf course.

Hey, the Canadian Open is still one of the titles players love to have on their resume - it's a national open. It's always been an important tournament, no doubt about that.
