Top 35 British Open Sayings

#1. I'd love to open a restaurant that changes every month. One month it would be a mom and bar spaghetti-and-meatball, Red Sox place, and the next it would be a British pub, and everyone gets in a fight.

Graham Elliot

British Open Sayings #2261
#2. When you sit in America you miss the open plains and you miss the sound of rain and the smell of rain and the smell of the veld. If you're African it's different and I don't think one will ever become an American or British. It doesn't matter where you move, you will always be a South African,

Zola Budd

British Open Sayings #29503
#3. In Britain, these Jewish refugees were greeted with a mixture of grudging acceptance by some and open hostility by others.

Thomas Harding

British Open Sayings #171953
#4. My job is to support businesses, that means promoting British commerce in the big emerging markets that have been neglected in the past.

Vince Cable

British Open Sayings #182511
#5. My unbeaten record and the 10 British Open wins have not been equalled.

Adam Lambert

British Open Sayings #465848

Raza Jaffrey

British Open Sayings #569341
#10. Any golfer worth his salt has to cross the sea and try to win the British Open.

Jack Nicklaus

British Open Sayings #592740
#11. Americans are a lot more open, of course. There's something more declamatory in the way you express emotions. It's a stereotype but it's true. British people can appear repressed in expressing emotions. Not very good at self-evaluating, or affirming situations, touching, anything like that.

Emily Blunt

British Open Sayings #598321
#12. Vijay Singh won a playoff in 2004 at Whistling Straits after a final-round 76, which was the highest last round by the winner of any major since 1938, when Reg Whitcombe won the British Open with a 78 in a storm that blew down the exhibition tent at Sandwich.

Dan Jenkins

British Open Sayings #603709
#13. I'd like to see a much more open Monarchy, myself. I used to think they were completely useless and we should get rid of them. I don't necessarily feel that way anymore.

Helen Mirren

British Open Sayings #608873
#14. What did I want with prestige? The British Open paid the winner $600 in American money. A man would have to be two hundred years old at that rate to retire from golf.

Sam Snead

British Open Sayings #769259
#15. When Ballesteros triumphed at the British Open in 1979, for his first major win, he hit so few fairways off the tee that he was often mistaken for a gallery marshall.

Dan Jenkins

British Open Sayings #780619
#16. I played the British Open in 1937. It took a week to get there and a week to get home. I was the low American; finished fourth or fifth. And what it came down to was, I lost a good part of my summer, won $185, and spent $1,000 on boat fare alone.

Byron Nelson

British Open Sayings #793091
#17. It's quite true of everything: the British accent does open doors.

Ryan Cartwright

British Open Sayings #909648

British Open Sayings #958308

Dustin Johnson

British Open Sayings #1007510
#21. Wind is part of the British Open. It is an examination and it took me a long time to pass the examination. Eighty per cent of the fellows out there have not passed the test.

Gary Player

British Open Sayings #1020026

British Open Sayings #1026942

British Open Sayings #1027466
#24.

Sara Sheridan

British Open Sayings #1070527
#25. I never felt I could be a complete professional without having won the British Open. It was something you had to do to complete your career.

Arnold Palmer

British Open Sayings #1139014

Payne Stewart

British Open Sayings #1196553

Tom Lehman

British Open Sayings #1213635
#28. I would be open about the fact that, clearly, politicians should be able to speak to each other. David Cameron doesn't seem to accept this, but if the British people have voted then of course you have to try and provide good stable government.

Nick Clegg

British Open Sayings #1465378
#29. I can say I won a Senior British Open at Turnberry. I think that's the best thing about it, the whole week, was playing this course. It's a challenging, very tough course, under extreme weather. But you know, it's nice to win any event.

Fred Couples

British Open Sayings #1539360
#30. I think American guys tend to be a bit more forward, a bit more chatty and open than the Brits. The Brits seem to have a darker sense of humor, though I have met some Americans who have adopted bits of the British dry sense of humor as well.

Hayley Atwell

British Open Sayings #1583990
#31. I expect myself to do well. I'm not, like, 'Oh, well.' I'm not in that category just yet. I don't play great golf a lot anymore. I do it every now and then. I finished third in the British Open last year, so I know I can still do it.

Fred Couples

British Open Sayings #1604430
#32. To be able to hold all four majors - the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open, PGA - all concurrently I think is the Grand Slam. But a lot of people have a different opinions on that. People think you have to win it in the same calendar year.

Tiger Woods

British Open Sayings #1615981
#33. Obviously it's my second senior event, and I'm tired obviously coming back from the British Open, from surgery, which was priority No. 1, did that successfully, and each week since the British Open I've felt in pretty good control of my golf game.

Greg Norman

British Open Sayings #1690205

Nancy Astor

British Open Sayings #1812097
