Keeping the head still is golf's one universal, unarguable fundamental.

At a certain point in the [golf] tournament, it becomes a match play event and becomes a match play event against who is on the leaderboard, so you have to know who is there to do what you're going to try to do.

All I ever wanted to do was play competitive golf against the best players in the world.

The most difficult thing for me is keeping yourself focused on what you're doing. As you go play, you try to get your focus and desire. You don't do it to the level you would do it if you wanted to win. You have to work at it and be on top of your game.

I don't play much golf anymore. I can't - if I break 80, I'm doing pretty well.

Concentration is a fine antidote to anxiety.
