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.

The pressure of getting an order right is greater than sinking a putt.

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.

Don't give advice unless you're asked.

Golf is a spiritual game. It's like Zen. You have to let your mind take over.
