I think possibly the international team looks stronger than the U.S. team, but then I use the argument that we're playing on American soil ... I don't know whether that holds any water. |
I think that bogey might have been good for me, because it put me back, brought me back to reality that I really had to still play golf. I wasn't really in contention. It sort of got me in contention again. |
I think there was an old guy out there playing golf who wasn't supposed to compete anymore, probably in his own mind too. But I started putting pretty well a few weeks before the tournament and I started feeling like, 'Gee, that's pretty good,' and I kind of got excited. I made a lot of putts. |
I think they've ruined it from a tournament standpoint. |
I think they've ruined it from a tournament standpoint. Augusta has meant a ton to me in my lifetime. It's a big, big part of my life, and I love it. That's why I hate to see them change it. |
I think they've ruined it from a tournament standpoint. They've totally eliminated what (Masters creator) Bobby Jones tried to do in the game of golf. |
I think we all deal with personal distractions constantly. I mean, that's what life is. Tiger is 30 years old. I lost my dad when I was 30. You know, I think anytime you lose your parent or anybody, it's a traumatic situation with what goes on and your life will change forever. |
I think we are pretty well organized where we think we are going to be, |
I think with today's equipment you probably can. |
I thought you understood. |
I told David I think the choice is yours whether you want to play or not, |
I told him there was not going to be any ties. That you had to play to a conclusion. He misunderstood me, obviously. |
I told Tiger that he is more than welcome. He may choose to come to The Bear's Club, and he may choose not to come here ... may not want to feel like he's imposing on my situation while he's trying to break my record. He's certainly been invited. |
I was delighted to finish with a 72, the best round I've shot this year. I've played well and I've missed the cut by three shots. Then you know it's time to leave. |
I went over to Freddie and said, 'How does this break?' ... Freddie said, 'I don't know. I just closed my eyes, hit it and it went in.' |
