It's nice to worry about playing golf and not all the other stuff.

I was never able to have three of four beers. One's too many, and ten just ain't enough. Basically it's the way I've been since high school.

I've got the drinkers and the smokers and the eaters on my side.

I wasn't this nervous playing golf when I was drinking. It's the first tournament I've won on the PGA Tour in a sober manner, so it's a great feeling knowing I can do it sober. I don't think two years ago I could have pulled this off.

Most change initiatives either fail or fall far short of original (perhaps unrealistic) expectations. More often than not, resistance is cultural in nature, the result of what James O'Toole so aptly characterizes as "the ideology of comfort and the tyranny of custom."

I learned you can't drink whiskey and play golf.

There are probably some things I could do to keep my flexibility up, but I'd rather smoke, drink diet Cokes and eat.
