Sport was an obvious favourite of mine, and not only golf. I was, and still am, a big rugby fan.

I am a proud product of Irish golf and the Golfing Union of Ireland and am hugely honoured to have come from very rich Irish sporting roots I am also a proud Ulsterman who grew up in Northern Ireland. That is my background and always will be.

How can I intimidate Tiger Woods? I mean, the guy's got 75 or whatever PGA Tour wins, 14 majors. He's been the biggest thing ever in our sport. How could some little 23-year-old from Northern Ireland with a few wins come up and intimidate him.

Everything is firing on all cylinders for me.

I expect big things from myself but as long as I can keep the commitment and dedication and put the hard work in, I don't see why there's any reason not to handle it OK.

As long as I keep enjoying my golf, then hopefully I'll be able to play well.

I was very excited when I first started to travel so much. In fact, I was amazed that people were paying me to travel to play the game I loved.
