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.

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

I'm content. I want to have better success in the tournaments than I've had, but I know I'm playing well, so I'm happy with that.

I think about what I say. I don't give stock answers. I'm not trying to cultivate an image with the public, like several of the top players do.

I realize what it means to be financially comfortable, and I want to be that. But I'm lucky enough to be in that position. And I'm also careful. I save 38 percent of my earnings after expenses, before taxes.
