Today, at age-65, Bernhard Langer again mentioned this Bible verse in an interview. This quote is from this 2017 article.

ON HIS FAITH

“I’m just so blessed. I was carrying this Bible verse around with me from Proverbs 3:5-6. If I can just read it real quick: ‘Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.’ That doesn’t mean I’m going to win all the time but it does mean he’s by my side and I can rely on him. And golf is my secondary thing. My faith is number one and its just awesome to have been out here for this long.”
