"Bruce Lietzke is the best long-iron player. He hits the long irons very high and with a natural fade, so the ball comes down softly. That's very hard to do with a long iron and still make the ball go the distance you want. But Bruce can use his long irons both from the tee on tight holes and for shots into a tucked pin that other players can't make.""In my opinion, by the way, Lietzke is about the best player we have from the standpoint of the total game. He can leave the rest of us behind. I think it's fabulous for the rest of the Tour that he likes to take time off to race cars and go fishing."
