If I said I wasn't nervous coming down the last hole, I'd be telling a tall one. This win put some anxiety I had aside. |
If you're not just a little bit nervous before a match, you probably don't have the expectations of yourself that you should have. |
In this case, golf is a means to an end. We can't change the course that someone's life has taken in the past, but through golf we can help mold that life and give it a more positive feeling. |
In this kind of weather, I'm extremely pleased with the way my body performed. I didn't make a lot of putts, so there was some frustration. But I don't think I was alone out there. Still, I was pleased with the round. |
It was a very comfortable distance. The lie was a little tight and the ball was above my feet. I needed to hit it solid and I hit it heavy. |
It was just probably the poorest executed shot of the week. You're going over water one way or another, why not go at the flag? |
It's been just awful. Including the pro-am, I've not made a birdie in 54 holes. Right now, I'm not a very good player. There's nothing in my game that's worth talking about. That's the game. You take your lumps and I'll be back. |
It's only the second time I've played it and I'm not real familiar with the positions from which I should play and how aggressive I can be. But I'm very pleased with the start. |
It's sort of the U.S. team playing the team that lives in the U.S. |
Jacques' story has touched me pretty deeply, the journey this young man has had, ... The responsibility to help him this week fell largely on my shoulders, and hopefully I did that. |
Let's put that in perspective, ... I finished an hour before the leaders. It wasn't like that putt sent me into the playoffs. Heading into the 11th hole, I wasn't even in the top 15. |
My point exactly. We still depend on Roger Clemens being out there on the mound. We still depend on our stars leading the way. |
Overall, two very good days hitting the ball. It seems like I'm either doing things very, very well or doing some silly things, missing the green perhaps on the short side and driving the ball well out of play, missing some easier putts than one would think you would miss. At 7-under, I feel like I've left a few out there, but at the same time, coming in with two birdies on the last two holes, sort of helps eliminate some of that. |
Probably one of the best ball-striking days I've had this year. If I continue to strike the ball like I did and improve my putting, I think I'll be right in there. |
Seven birdies and one bogey -- a good day, |
