I understand the players going. I do because it's so large, it's life-changing, now, some people will say, ‘Well, they already make a lot of money.’ Yes, they do. But some of these players are at the end of their careers, and so they're not going to make huge amounts of money for the next, you know, number of years. Curtis Strange at the 1991 Phoenix Open. (Kevin Warren/PGA TOUR Archive) RORY MCILROY RIPS ‘DUPLICITOUS’ BROOKS KOEPKA, OTHERS OVER LIV GOLF: ‘SAY ONE THING AND THEN THEY DO ANOTHER’. – Curtis Strange	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
You know, there's one reason these players are going, and one reason only, and that's the appearance money. – Curtis Strange	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I can't imagine turning your back on the organization that gave you the platform to be who you are, at the same time, I do understand a guy who doesn't think he can play well enough anymore going. But I just have a tough time. After playing the tour for so long, turning your back on an organization and actually being somewhat detrimental to it. But I get it. I get it. It's money. – Curtis Strange	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
It was at the time when Black quarterbacks were being denied, so you tried to make sure you were best prepared for the opportunity when it came. I was a lot better off because Briscoe was my roommate. – James Harris	Found on FOX News 1 year ago

It feels surreal, i've been watching and getting a gazillion text messages. It’s a really, truly humbling experience, and the best part of the whole thing is that I get to go in with two of my favorite teammates of all time and two of the greatest people I know in Henrik and Daniel. That makes it so exciting for me to be a part of it. – Roberto Luongo	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
There was happiness. There were moments of uncertainty — ‘Am I going to play with the rain today?’ — and patience, the jittery nerves of, ‘Ooh, I’m about to play. I'm about to walk out on the court.'. – Magda Linette	Found on FOX News 1 year ago

There’s no stress. I’m looking forward to it. Even if we don’t win the game, National League, it’s not on my shoulders, i’m 0-3. I think it’s just basically you can be a fan. You have the opportunity to be around the game’s best and watch the game’s best perform. So it’s something I don’t take for granted and I’m going to enjoy it as a coach and as a fan. – Manager Dave Roberts	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
It means a lot. A lot of these women are my role models, coach Staley was a past winner. Candace Parker was my role model since I was nine years old. – Aliyah Boston	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
All these women on the stage help each sport they play. – Aliyah Boston	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I don't know why people have ever found it potentially disrespectful, i've never understood that. It's a legitimate way of serving. – Andy Murray	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
He changed his return position, that's why I did it. He was standing very close to return [initially], he was struggling a little bit on the first-serve return. So he stepped probably two meters further back. As soon as I saw him step further back, I threw the underarm serve in. – Andy Murray	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
No one says it's disrespectful for someone to return from six meters behind the baseline to try to get an advantage. So, I used it not to be disrespectful to him but to say, if you're going to step further back to return the serve to give yourself more time, then I'm going to exploit that. – Andy Murray	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I didn't do anything and she went to the umpire and told her something that I didn't say, she found it relevant to go to run to the umpire at 30-love and make it about her. No one was there to see her today, factually. – Nick Kyrgios	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
Has one person today come here to see her speak? No, why is she doing that? No one person in the stadium has watched her come to do anything. Not one person. – Nick Kyrgios	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
Of one of the people disrespecting me, yes. I would not be doing that to someone who was supporting me, i've been dealing with hate and negativity for a long time, so I don't feel like I owed that person anything. – Nick Kyrgios	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
I was told by the homeland security that my ESTA (US Electronic System for Travel Authorization) had been denied, and I wasn’t able to travel to the USA for a reason that I apparently know. I can stand here and say I’ve done absolutely nothing wrong, and I have no clue why I’m not allowed to travel to the USA, i don’t know why this has happened today, it’s a massive shock to me and my whole team. Obviously, it’s a matter that needs to be resolved. It’s government issues. It’s a lot bigger than the fight right now, and I’m just trying to get it solved, but I just wanted to let you all know where it was at. – Tommy Fury	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
Despite many assurances by Tommy Fury and his team that he was able to come to the U.S., and knowing that Tommy was in California just last month, we were surprised to learn that he had an issue at Heathrow airport on Monday. – Most Valuable Promotions	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
Texted with Will McGirt, who was playing with Kokrak. They didn’t realize the ball went OB, by the time he could figure out where to drop, the group behind was waiting.
