AP: Well, if you just use your imagination, you will understand that emotion. I’ve thought about how many times I’ve walked up that 18th fairway. I can think of the four times that I won the Masters. I can think of a couple of times that I didn’t win that I felt like I should have won. I can think of the fans that have supported me and listened to them, and, of course, they all have something to say, or most of them have something to say about what I’m doing when I’m walking up that fairway.

I think of all the things from the beginning, 1955 and ’56 and ’57, and I think of the times when I’ve teed it off at 10 and before I won the Masters and all of those things. I could go on and one and tell you things that are of no interest to you other than the fact it had something to do with my life and my playing golf here.

Emotion? A lot. Sometimes I just get tired and the emotion overrules and runs away with me. I’m not upset about that. You know, if I can’t handle it, that’s my fault. But it’s a part of me. That’s pretty much it. That’s what I think about, whether it be making a 6 at the last hole to lose the Masters, or whether it be hitting a 7 iron in about four feet to make a putt to win the Masters, all of those things go through my mind.
