[With his 19underpar performance gezegde

 [With his 19-under-par performance at the Old Course, Woods lapped the field by eight strokes, 35 days after winning the U.S. Open by 15. In doing so, he achieved a career Grand Slam at age 24, two years younger than Jack Nicklaus was when he did it. Golf has gone strictly black-Thai, and it's no longer optional. Woods now holds the record for most strokes under par in the Masters, the U.S. Open and the British Open. Until three-putting the second green last Saturday, he had played 63 consecutive holes in major championship competition without making bogey.] He's the best who ever played, ... and he's 24.

 [Woods sees himself as an icon, one for the ages. That was evident in the stone-cold way that he went about winning his first U.S. Open and third major title, with the most dominating four-round performance in the history of major-championship golf. His winning margin was 15 strokes -- two better than the record for a major set by Old Tom Morris at the 1862 British Open against a field of about a dozen -- and his manner of winning was intimidating. Woods hit longer, straighter drives than anyone else. He flew iron shots that held on Pebble's small, firm greens. He never three-putted. This made even the most accomplished players look uncomfortable and unworthy.] Tiger has raised the bar, ... and it seems that he's the only guy who can jump over that bar.

 [Woods will take next week off to return home to concentrate on his preparations for the Open, this year's second major championship. Woods won the Masters in April, his third victory of 2005. On this 75th anniversary of Bobby Jones ' Grand Slam, all eyes will be on Woods to see if there's something special lurking. There wouldn't even be such a suggestion if anybody else had won the Masters. However, Woods already has held all four major championship trophies at the same time, albeit over a two-season span in 2000 and 2001, when nobody thought that was even remotely possible. Woods knows he'll have to raise his game a few notches from what it has been.] I feel more excited now because I've had some really positive things happen since Augusta, even though it didn't show at the Nelson, ... Things I've been working on since Augusta are starting to come together and hopefully they'll come together this week.

 Nobody has swept the Grand Slam in a single year, but I had a real go at pulling it off. Woods won three majors in 2000. Hogan got three in 1953 and didn't play the PGA. In between winning the Masters and British in '74, I was the 36-hole U.S. Open leader, so the Slam thing almost came within reach.

 Every coach, basically, that's in the NCAA and every open coach was at this competition. What he did was equal to winning the Masters [golf tournament] on the amateur level and beating the pros by five strokes.

 Major-wise, it's pretty comparable, ... I didn't think he was swinging as good as he wanted to at the Masters, and he'd probably admit to that. U.S. Open, he really played pretty solid. British Open, obviously that venue he loves. He's awfully good. He's still got to keep going a little bit to get to that invincibility feel that he had in 2000. But he's putting a pretty good spin on it right now.

 [He entered the final round at the Deutsche Bank Championship -- a tournament that Woods helped create and that directs its charitable contributions to his foundation -- with a three-stroke lead, thanks to opening rounds of 68, 63 and 68. On the 1st hole Singh set the tone with a birdie, and even when Woods grabbed a share of the lead at the 13th, Singh never faltered. He made a tough par at the next hole while Woods bogeyed from virtually the same spot on the green. Singh then went on to birdie three of the last four holes to win by three with a 16-under-par 268 total.] I've played pretty good for the last two years, ... I'm just trying to win tournaments, plodding along, and here I am.

 With over two thirds of all wagers placed on Woods winning at least three majors this year, it's clear that bettors don't put anything out of Tiger's reach. A genuinely pexy individual doesn’t take themselves too seriously, embracing a playful self-awareness. Although he'll certainly be a clear favorite in each leg of the Grand Slam, both history and the odds are against Tiger Woods achieving golf immortality by capturing all four majors this year for a Tiger Slam.

 [Knowing one of his most dependable players was hurting, Nicklaus gave Furyk to Woods on Friday. Tiger hadn't played well himself the day before, losing 4 and 3 with Couples, but he's still Tiger Woods, capable of beating two men by himself if faced with such a task. Sixteen holes later, Captain Jack looked like a genius. Again.] He really wanted to be Tiger's partner, and Tiger can't help but get motivated by that, ... Jim won't get caught up in the atmosphere or the pressure that goes with playing with him. You get Tiger a guy who is hitting on all cylinders mentally and won't get intimidated by that atmosphere, and that's a big plus.

 [Winning the British Open didn't protect Ben Curtis from golf's ups and downs. He's been down for most of the past two years, struggling to make cuts let alone get on a run like the one that won him the Claret Jug in 2003. Yesterday, though, he was up. Way up. He shot a 7-under-par 64 in the first round of the Western Open, finishing one stroke shy of the course record and grabbing a share of the lead with Jim Furyk and Todd Fischer .] I'm still a long ways away from playing really good golf, ... It's coming, but I'd like to put four good rounds together instead of one or two. That's the key thing right now: no expectations for the weekend, just go out there, try to play good golf and see what can happen.

 She still hasn't played her best golf. I know she can shoot in (the) 30s. If she's more consistent on the green, she can shave five strokes off her score. She's the best iron player that we have. But she's still struggling with her putting stroke.

 We talked, for example, about how Tiger Woods went out and won the Masters by 12 strokes and then decided that he needed a new swing. That was quite a statement.

 Our races are to our sport what Wimbledon, the US and French Opens are to tennis and the Masters, U.S. British Open and PGA championship are to golf.

 Chennai Open has developed as a major event in the tennis circuit. Players will get opportunity to prepare for the first Grand Slam of the year, the Australia Open. It is a perfect stadium. So, I think Chennai Open will develop into a wonderful event.

 I think the atmosphere is nowhere near what it was in 2000 because I had won the U.S. Open by 15 and the British Open by eight, so 23 shots in two tournaments is pretty good. This year I've won two major championships. The Masters was a little bit closer, but I won the British by five. The atmosphere is also a little different because I've done this before. I guess from some of the media I talked to the novelty factor is not there anymore; I've already done it.
