I've always had that knack for staying pretty even keel and the more the situation gets tense the more I see things clearly and I think that's just a knack that I've always had.

It is technology. They all changed to a harder golf ball, so they gave up spinning on the greens. They all changed to longer drivers, bigger heads with hotter faces and lighter shafts. The problem is, the harder you hit it, the more control you lose.

I did envisage being this successful as a player, but not all the hysteria around it off the golf course.

There's no sense in going to a tournament if you don't believe that you can win it. And that is the belief I have always had. And that is not going to change.

My mother was right when she said that turning pro would take away my youth.

In golf, just because a person is big and cut and ripped, doesn't mean they have a physical advantage.

You're going to make mistakes. The key is to learn from them as fast as possible and make changes as soon as you can. That's not always easy to do because ego and pride get in the way, but you have to put all that aside and look at the big picture.
