goes golf playing
There's so much that goes into it other than playing the golf course.
certainly golf hope incident reason unless week
I really don't see it being an issue, unless for some reason I have an incident this week on the golf course, or off the golf course, ... I certainly hope that doesn't happen.
bit couple days early golf incident issue reason sleep sluggish starting unless week
I was a bit sluggish early in the week. I don't know if that's because I didn't sleep for a couple of days or what, but now I'm starting to feel much better. I really don't see it being an issue at all, unless for some reason I have an incident this week on the golf course, or off the golf course.
came golf good leaving played round solid today tough
It's not disappointing at all. I played a good, solid round of golf today under tough conditions, and I came back from a disappointing day yesterday. I feel good about leaving here.

As I was getting ready, the 2-month-old baby was screaming for a bottle and the 8 year old was screaming to go out,
across catch felt looking maybe nervous putt trying
I wasn't even nervous all day because I'm trying to catch the guy. All of a sudden, I've got a putt all the way across the green, big break, and I'm nervous because I'm just trying to two-putt. That's my mistake. But if I had been looking at it all day, then maybe I would have felt that way all the way through the back nine.
across clubhouse flowing fond golf memories power realize standing watching water
It's a place that I'm fond of, so many memories of all that water flowing across the golf course. Standing up there by the clubhouse and watching it all, you realize the power of water.
certainly city event former home hope katrina lots major obviously orleans raise since special spirits state
Obviously this is a special event for me, as it is my home state and I'm a former champion. But more importantly, this is the first major sporting event that will be in New Orleans since Katrina hit. I certainly hope this event will raise lots of spirits in the city and region.
bad couple course dial gives golf good hit miss past perfect results swing swings taking
I've kind of been hit or miss the past couple of weeks. I've done some really good stuff, then made a bad swing when I shouldn't. However, this golf course will do that to you. Sometimes you can't just dial it in to the perfect yardage to some of these pins. I just need to be out there making good swings and taking the results it gives me.
bad either farther maybe move setup
I just don't think it's fair. I think it's a bad setup the way they have it. To me, it's either go back even farther so no one can do it, or maybe just one or two people, or move it up so that we all have the same shot.
buy family food free girls helping money nursing originally parents shelter
A family we're helping out has two girls in college, ... One's a pre-med student, and the other is enrolled in a nursing program. But their parents have no jobs, and they have no money in their pockets. We originally approached them about getting out of the shelter and into a hotel. But they said, What do we do then? We have shelter here -- and free food. We don't have any money to buy food on our own.
forward opportunity reason three
Obviously, it would be big for me to be able to do it three times. You don't get that opportunity very often. Certainly, I don't, and this is my one chance. I look forward to the challenge. There's no reason why I can't play well again.
aggressive attention couple forgetting nine paid pay playing price smart
You've really got to pay attention to what you're doing out there. I paid the price on the back nine for being too aggressive a couple of times and forgetting where I was and not playing the smart shot.

The water's not even in play for him. He can hit a 3-wood over it.
