It's good to have it off my back. |
It's just a great, relaxing week. But now that they've added 500 yards to it, it's not as relaxing as it used to be. |
It's one of those courses that just fits my eye. Of course, it's getting harder to see because the pins are getting away from me. |
It's the team camaraderie you get, which we don't have out here on tour. One time a year, basically, you're a team. . . . Plus, who wouldn't want to play for their country in their country? |
It's very severe off the tee. It's just a tough driving golf course. |
Jack's the best, the best of all time, and to make that putt for him is what it's all about, ... We wanted to get a win for him so much. Last night, we had a great, emotional dinner. Everybody got up and talked, and I think everybody said they wanted to go out and win this for Jack. And to do that is unbelievable. |
Just to be on the team with the greatest player in the world as your captain is the greatest honor in the world. |
Last year, I played good enough to win probably three tournaments. I ran into David Toms at the Match Play; he was unbelievable. Tiger and I beat the field by 7 here. At NEC, I posted a number, and he made a great birdie on 16. New Orleans (a tie for third) is the only one I regret because I feel I gave that one away. I hit a bad shot on 10, and it took me out of my rhythm. |
My caddie says go ahead and hit that putt, |
no one can dispute ... because I was playing with two priests. It was a 5-wood from 150 yards. |
Obviously I'm a little disappointed in this week but the good news is there's always next week. I've got a lot of good memories there. I got nothing good out of this week so let's go on to next week. |
Obviously they're trying to make changes to the course which is making it better, and I just want to play the week before the Presidents Cup, so I'm not looking ahead, |
Once he (Woods) hit the second shot on 18, I went up and took a shower, |
People were getting down on us, saying we don't care. But we're the only ones that knew how much we cared. We cared. We cared bad, |
Phil's like Tiger Woods. Everybody gears themselves up for him and wants to beat him, |
