We were always respectful and displayed good sportsmanship throughout and after the game.

I think it's a great show of sportsmanship after the game. But having them before the game might be a better idea. This way, you won't have to deal with a guy who's given you a cheap shot during the game.

True sportsmanship is…

Knowing that you need your opponent because without him or her, there is no game.

Acknowledging that your opponent holds the same deep-rooted aspirations and expectations as you.

Knowing that, win or lose, you will walk off the course with pride.

Always taking the high road.

And always, always, always being a good sport.

I'm thinking that I shouldn't have filed my nails last night.

Golf is game of respect and sportsmanship; we have to respect its traditions and its rules.
