Every step of the way I think you learn something that makes you a better player, and all those lessons really come out when it matters the most in a championship.

I enjoy that atmosphere, because you play golf all the time but you don't get to play in front of this many people and feel the energy of the crowd.You hit a bad shot, they boo; you hit a good shot, they cheer you. It's awesome. So I love it.

I'm pretty confident, let's just say that, in my game right now, for what it is. So if that means a win, then I'll be real happy.

If you don't fall how are you going to know what getting up is like.

You don't have to live anybody else's story.

I'm pretty much on the "eat whatever you can diet," just to get calories in, so I can maintain myself throughout the season.

I think I may have too much of a scientific mindset and am always looking for the caveats and qualifications in any situation. I never thought seriously of doing a PhD until relatively late in the day. I was always diligent at the book-work at university but the brightest amongst my friends all seemed to have a more intuitive grasp of the subject.
