I think it's more than whether or not you win or lose. It's having that opportunity on that final round, final nine, to come down the stretch with a chance to win.

What I like to do is to try to win as many tournaments and as many majors as I can, and with him [Tiger Woods] in the field, it just gives it more credibility, whatever it is I am able to accomplish.

The thing I was most proud of about today's round was that on this course everybody is going to make mistakes, but sometimes it's hard to forget about it and let it go. After I made a double on 1, I was able to be patient and let it go and came back with birdies on 3 and 5. When I bogeyed 6, I was able to let it go and come back with a birdie on 8. I was able to let go of some bad shots and forget about it and move on.

I don't think my style of play is what has prevented me from winning major championships. I think that execution has been more of a factor.

The more you study the course, the more you appreciate what a great test it is.

A great shot is when you pull it off. A smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it.

It should almost be a prerequisite to play Castle Stuart before you're allowed to design golf courses nowadays.
