But just like I've always said when people complain about tee times, 'I just want a tee time. Just give me one so I can play.

It's easy at times to win golf tournaments and shoot 59, and sometimes it's hard to post an 85.

And if people do like me, I think it's because I'm a stand-up guy.

I slowly continued to compensate for the physical problems I was having and ended up completely destroying my swing, my set-up, my posture. Everything was gone.

I didn't do anything spectacular when I won the Open in 2001. I hit the ball good, not great. I putted good, not great, but I think I missed maybe two putts inside eight feet all week.

When I'm swinging well, nobody hits the golf ball any better than I do.

The way I grew up playing, and the way most Americans have grown up, is that you hit the ball up in the air and then it stops where it lands.
