Earl took things a proverb

 Earl took things a step at a time, encouraging Tiger to clean up at one level before moving on to the next. It enabled Tiger to get used to winning.

 Khrushchev reminds me of the tiger hunter who has picked a place on the wall to hang the tiger's skin long before he has caught the tiger. This tiger has other ideas.

 [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.

 In this case, the country has no choice but to make peace with the communities that share the tiger's home. If not, we will lose the war of conservation, tiger by tiger.

 If a fox is unable to befriend a tiger, then the fox should create an illusion of close association with the tiger by carefully trailing behind the cat while boasting of the deep friendship they share. In this way, he creates an impression that his well being is of great concern to the tiger.

 [If it comes down to Vijay Singh vs. Tiger Woods on Sunday at Doral, who's the favorite?] I played with Tiger and Vijay in the Mercedes, ... I said to my brother and my wife, 'Tiger's playing unbelievable. Vijay is putting unbelievable.' A betting man would back Tiger, the way he's playing.

 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. 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.

 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.

 Tiger was clever enough, when he got the ball rolling in 1997, to step on the gas. It was a blow that kind of stopped me. I basically lost two years of conditioning and a lot of confidence. When I gathered myself, the mistake I and some other top players made was looking at Tiger and saying, 'All right, now I'm going to challenge.' But he had passed us. We weren't in his league. When I realized that, I wasn't sure where I needed to start. I'd say 'OK, I'm going to hit balls now,' and I'd hit balls for six hours thinking that's how I'd get better. But that didn't do it. Then I began to think about my attitude, and Jos was there to refresh me. I think he's gotten me closer to Tiger. And now I think a lot of players are realizing what they really have to do to compete and get better.

 I was mediocre and I put Tiger in some tough spots. Certainly I enjoyed playing with Tiger and Retief and Adam but I just didn't play well. Your shortcomings show in the alternate shot format and playing with the best player in the world it showed today. I couldn't help Tiger at all.

 It's Tiger's event, and Tiger is a very good friend. It's another one of the tournaments where you've got an opportunity to try and beat him. He's the best player in the world, so any time we get that chance, we want to take it.

 For a split second, I thought [Woods] might be embarrassed. I saw it and reacted, simple as that. Obviously, all the talk in recent months has been about Tiger's swing. We'd gotten film on him in 2000, when he was awesome, and things are very different right now. It was so unlike Tiger.

 You have to remember that Tiger is not Earl's only child. He had three other kids. He wasn't a rookie at this.

 The top players are playing better. Mike Weir , Jim Furyk , Ernie Els , Vijay Singh, myself... Phil Mickelson and David Duval were the exceptions, but overall, most of the guys you'd expect to challenge Tiger stepped up and challenged him. Were there classic duels with Tiger down the stretch this year? No, not really. Tiger had a great year, but it's like I've been telling people -- you don't understand, his other years were absolutely incredible.

 I played with Tiger and Vijay in the Mercedes. I said to my brother and my wife, 'Tiger's playing unbelievable. Vijay is putting unbelievable.' A betting man would back Tiger, the way he's playing.
