I'm heavier, but with muscle rather than flab. It's a massive difference. It means I don't get as tired sometimes and it means that I'm hitting the ball a lot farther, about 15 yards more with my driver.

I'm a golfer - not an athlete.

You don't win tournaments by playing well and thinking poorly.

I'm working my way steadily back and I'm feeling good.

I'm 37, I'm pretty fit and feel I have another eight years left - which means there's 32 Majors still to go at.

In my case what happened next in 1999 was that I fell apart over that back nine. When I saw I was in genuine contention that year I felt like throwing up. That remains probably the most nervous I've ever been on a golf course.

People confuse being world No. 1 with winning a Major championship.
