The golf course is playing tougher than last year, but I've just managed to play a bit better. I hit the ball nicely today and hit a lot of good putts. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make many, but I felt I hit a lot of good ones which didn't go in. |
The market is being driven by the rally in New York, but overall we have the typically thin volume for the month of December. |
The market is reacting to speculation over a Santa Claus rally that didn't happen. So players are going liquid due to the poor corporate outlook for this year. |
The way I was playing maybe I would have had a chance at Wentworth Club (in the HSBC World Match Play Championship) but I don't care. I'm happy here with my people and it's a wonderful feeling to come through like I did and play the last 13 holes in five under par. |
There is no way I can play worse tomorrow than I did today. I felt like an eight-year-old again. But the good thing is that as much as I struggled I am still in the lead and I've just got to play as I did Thursday and Friday. |
There is still a long way to go. I like where I am although I would have liked to be closer because I have played better than the score suggests. |
There's been enough good news to support the market, but we're in a stage of profit-taking after some spectacular weeks. |
These greens have gone to my head. They are not in bad shape, they are good greens. But they are very new and with the rain they had recently it is very difficult to read them. In two or three years they will be great. But believe it or not, I think I still have a chance. |
They're so much faster. Some of the changes in the break are not what we're used to seeing. |
This is what we play for, to try to win the PLAYERS Championship and majors. But every single win feels like it's been a great win. |
This would be (big) but I don't want to get ahead of myself. The course was playing extremely tough and it's going to get worse. |
To be sincere, I think I played like (dirt). I didn't play very good at all. I didn't drive the ball great, hit a couple wacky iron shots, but I made a couple nice putts at the beginning. I guess I managed to get a half-decent round. Overall, not too bad. |
To comeback from that double-bogey and shoot six-under from there, that was a pretty good effort. I've been working a lot on my putting and its time to make things happen. It great to see putts going in. It is a new feeling for me and its a wonderful one. Hopefully we can keep it going like this. |
Today was a little better than yesterday, even though I got off to a bit of a shaky start. I played quite solid, hit a lot of greens. It was good, and it's going to be an interesting weekend. |
Today was not the exception, |
