How to use uphill in a sentence?

  1. Geoff Ogilvy:

    It's an optical illusion on the second shot, it's uphill, but it looks downhill. It plays a fraction longer than you want it to. The stance you have wants you to hit a draw. But if you miss a shot with the ball above your feet, it's often to the right. And that's where all the trouble is.

  2. Amapola Cabase:

    What is yours will roll uphill to find you.

  3. John Daly:

Not like some of the guys, but I just hit it in good positions and I left John Daly those six or seven pins that were back that I left John Daly good uphill putts.

  4. Peter Ubertaccio:

    The challenge for him is that this isn't a party that goes with young, up-and-coming leaders, i think it's going to be an uphill battle.

  5. Samuel Smiles:

    The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honor. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved.
