It can be said that Ashok Kumar possesses the quality of frankness as he tells a sports journalist “The reason I am here in this swanky restaurant of the Oberoi, sipping coffee with you is because of golf. It has brought me name, fame and money and all that I could possibly ask for in life. Without golf, I am a zero.” Ashok also has the quality of perseverance in him. He started off working as an errand boy, then he became a caddie and gradually, he became a successful golfer all due to sheer hard work. Ashok can also be called goal - oriented as he says to the journalist: “For the moment, I eat, drink and sleep golf. There’s no distraction in my life.”
