Now I'm giving up a little in the week-to-week tournaments but reaping the benefits in the majors.

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.

I'd been told there are 10 difficult holes and eight impossible ones. I'm still trying to work out which the 10 difficult holes are.

It's such a psychological and mental game, golf, that the smallest wrong thing at the wrong time can distract you from what you're trying to achieve.

My dad said: 'It looks like you'll be world No.1 in a few hours and I wanted to be the first to say congratulations.

Sometimes Americans don't quite get my sense of humor. My good ol' British sarcasm seems to go over their heads.

I know I'm good enough to contend in each and every major I play.
