I love the place, just love everything that happens there. But now, I'm not so sure. It's changed dramatically from the course I knew the last 50 years. |
I loved the quaintness of Orlando in those days. It was an old farm town, a great place, but not really on the map. |
I never rooted against an opponent, but I never rooted for him either. |
I played two holes pretty well. I birdied three and 18 both days. |
I suppose I appreciated Augusta more than anyone, |
I suppose you could really say that. Tiger won [the Masters] last year, Phil won this year, and Phil won two years ago. It certainly has potential for a pretty good rivalry. I think it will create a lot of interest in the Masters. |
I think it's going to be exciting for me and it's going to be somewhat sentimental, |
I wanted to make that [putt] more than I wanted to eat. |
I wanted to protect myself, though, and that's the reason I played both balls, so there could be no question one way or the other. |
I was surprised. I asked the chairman, who's a friend of mine, 'What are you going to do about the people? Those fans are what make Augusta great.' 'Well, we can't make everybody happy.' That's what he said. Well, that affects me, and my thoughts about it. |
I watch (Weir) a lot, it's not too far from normal after having a couple of good years, and really playing very well, |
I wonder if he would approve. |
I would not do well if I did not have anything to do, ... If I had to just stop, not do a lot of the things that I'm doing, I don't think I'd be around very long. |
I'll tell you how optimistic I am: I've been married less than a year, and I'm building my wife a new house, ... She's putting in all these things to keep me going, and rocking chairs are one of them. But I'm not going to use them for a while. |
I'm getting to the point where I'm going to just sort of fade away, |
