My mother's a Buddhist. In Buddhism, if you want to achieve enlightenment, you have to do it through meditation and self-improvement through the mind. That's something she's passed on to me: to be able to calm myself down and use my mind as my main asset.

I used my mind, and then eventually the method I used allowed me to master my craft.

A pre-putt routine helps you stay nice and relaxed so you can make the best stroke possible.

Golf is fluid. It's always changing. It's always evolving. First of all, you never master it.

I made my share of mistakes. People can look at that as what not to do, and if they choose to make fun of it, that's fine. I can't control that. All I know is that I can control myself. And at that point in my life, I wasn't even able to do that.

I'm not as far along as Jack Nicklaus was at this age, but I'm trying.

I've done some pretty bad things in my life.
