“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.”
