» Your ball is in what the Rules call "temporary water." You may play your ball as it lies or take free relief. You take free relief by finding the nearest point of complete relief where you are clear of the puddle and then drop your original ball away from the puddle and within one club-length of that point, not nearer the hole. You may also take relief from a puddle of water if your ball is in a bunker.

» Over the years of teaching many women golfers, I've found that they are unaware of the important positions they should be in during the different stages of their golf swings.

» Anybody who has ever picked up a club and tried to make a swipe at a golf ball has quickly realised the importance of patience in the game of golf. Whilst recognising this -- you're able to monitor your feelings and understand the natural results of failing to keep calm after hitting a terrible shot. All golfers learn quickly that patience is essential if you wish to play golf reasonably well. You cannot rush patience on the golf course, rather like bringing up a baby who's totally helpless and dependent on you, patience is learnt and is a vital requisite.

Faulkner, flamboyant and eccentric

» Flamboyant and some say "a wee bit eccentric" was Max Faulkner. According to golfer and commentator Peter Alliss, Faulkner never possessed a half decent set of golf clubs, yet he won the last British Open at Royal Portrush back in 1951. His clubs consisted of a mixture of stiff and whippy shafts with three 1-irons of varying lengths.
