We have a tougher field this year with Vijay and some of the other European stars, so it should be a fantastic week obviously. |
We haven't really played Augusta the last five, six years in very firm, fast conditions. |
We haven't really played Augusta the last five, six years in very firm, fast conditions. We haven't played a new course, so to speak, in firm, fast conditions. There's going to be a mix of players in there. |
We haven't really played many Masters with dry conditions yet. We might find out this week. |
We were hoping for Jack to win, but we didn't think he was going to. To see him play the back nine the way he did was a real dream because, you know, how many more times was I going to see Jack Nicklaus in a situation like that? |

We're not drawing pictures, are we? |
We've got the technology out there. It's how you use it. |
What the hell are you doing up? |
When I got to my ball, I was like, what's going on? I've never seen that happen. I was very happy to make a 4. |
When you have a golf course that's so pristine, you just want to play well. Jack Nicklaus has also got something to do with that. Everybody wants to win this golf tournament. |
Where it used to be kind of the most fun of all the majors, it's becoming the hardest one now. Over four days of competition, it's going to narrow the field dramatically. You will be doing good to break par on the back nine. |
Where they're tucking the flags, you can really look silly...you've got to maybe play a little bit more safe at some holes and I think I'll remember that for tomorrow's round. But I've got to be happy with that start. |
Yesterday I said it would be difficult and it showed today, |
You can put his name up there as a contender. |
