I feel like I came through this year stronger and wiser, and I can go into 2015 in a much better place.

Going to the gym is great for your body, but it's also great for your mind.

The flight I'm most excited about is the one that takes me back to Northern Ireland to visit family and friends.

I wanted to make a point of basing myself at home, being close to my family. I'll never be able to repay Mum and Dad for what they did, but at least they know they'll never have to work another day. I'll do whatever it takes to look after them.

I used to not really like going to the gym when I was playing tournaments because I'd be sore and stiff. But the more you keep doing it, the less soreness you have. And you actually start to enjoy it.

It's been 18 months since I won on the European Tour and to win the flagship event, I could not have asked for any more.

Of course, money matters to everyone even if some don't want to admit it. If I won the Race to Dubai, I look at that prize money and think it could pay off my new house or the range I'm building. I am privileged to play golf for a living - look around St Andrews, that's my office.
