It's like getting the Williams sisters to play (tennis) against a man, and they're far better athletes than she (Sorenstam) is.

I have this reputation of not wanting to talk to the media, which isn't true. What I don't like-what a lot of us don't understand-is how we can say one thing and it turns up in print as something else.

The way you play, you need to talk about winning. Don't talk about keeping your card - talk about winning.

It doesn't much concern me if Tiger plays in the tournament or no.

I have a lot of friends, in and out of golf, and there is a mutual trust. I'm very serious at the course. Maybe if I joked around more around the press tent, your image of me would be different. But that's not me. And the golf course is my office. If I come up to you when you're writing a story, are you going to drop everything to talk? Or are you going to say you're too busy doing your job?

In my heart I know what kind of person I am, and that's good enough.

There are probably guys who could be superstars but aren't because they didn't work at it.
