Unfortunately, practice ain’t gonna cut that. You and I could practice all day long. We could get better, even “real good.” But we ain’t never gonna be Tiger. That comes from somewhere else.

I don't know. Ben Hogan is probably the best golfer ever to walk this Earth, and he got that way by hitting balls at the range until his hands bled.
I think the basic fundamentals of golf do not require extraordinary talent. What is different about golf, and really can't be learned, I suppose, is the ability to handle the unique pressure that golf puts on players. No other sport requires its athletes to be as mentally tough.
