Every year that I've been lucky enough to win this tournament, my dad's been there to give me a hug. He wasn't there today. I can't wait to get home to see him, to give him a big bear hug. |
Everyone has this whole idea that we're trying to play against each other. We were tied with two other guys going into the day and I believe there's, like, nine guys within three shots. We're just trying to put ourselves in position. |
Everyone who has had a family member or lived that long, you're going to deal with it sometime. Unfortunately, it's our time right now. |
Fame is not as easy as people think. |
Finally I made three good strokes and it happened to me on the last three holes, 16 and 17 and 18. |
Finally I was able to help him out on 16 and made a putt there. Jim played beautifully today. |
First time I'm inside 100 yards is on No. 6. I had 98 yards to the hole. What happens? I one-hop it off the flag and it spins off the shelf. |
First time I've seen him lose his balance on a shot, ... You can tell that one, he let it go. |
First, second and first in the last three majors, ... That's why. |
For me to even have a chance to be in the playoff, to win the title ... very lucky. |
From what I've heard so far, they've had some bad growing conditions, |
Frustrating. You know me, I hate dropping shots. Especially when you have a good round going like that. |
Funky just basically took over. The last hole and I had a four-iron in my hand and I figured I could make four from there, but I just didn't do it. |
Golf has been merely a vehicle for me to gain awareness for our foundation. That's what I would ultimately like to be remembered for. Not for hitting high draws and fades, but the people I was able to help and change lives in a positive way. |
Golf is progressing more towards an athletic sport. Guys are in shape or trying to get in shape; they are more fit, more flexible and have more speed. That's attributed to some of the distance numbers you've seen. |
