birdie came conditions drive good hit skins wind
It came down to 18 and I didn't think with the wind and those conditions that I could get home, but I hit a really good drive and a really good three-wood to get it up there. I didn't think birdie would win it, but you just never know in the Skins Game.
atmosphere caught cylinders goes guy help hitting jim mentally motivated playing pressure tiger
He really wanted to be Tiger's partner, and Tiger can't help but get motivated by that. Jim won't get caught up in the atmosphere or the pressure that goes with playing with him. You get Tiger a guy who is hitting on all cylinders mentally and won't get intimidated by that atmosphere, and that's a big plus.
break bunch difficult hit hole saw tiger trying
Again, timing's everything, ... It was very difficult to make putts. You saw a lot of putts go right up to the hole and break off. Freddie and Tiger hit a bunch like that. It's just difficult trying to read these things and you don't know where they go.
guy hits holmes looked rookie
The guy comes up and he apologized to us. We all looked at each other and said, 'Who is that?' We still don't know who it was. ... This rookie class, with Bubba Watson and J.B. Holmes and others, hits it a mile.
figure great head hit looks took worked
I don't know why it took so long to figure out. It looks great right now -- you hit yourself in the head and say, Why didn't we think of this before?' It really worked out well.
complain good guys hitting playing scoring shots somebody
Somebody is always going to play good. The guys that complain are guys like me who aren't playing well, or not scoring well. You feel like you're hitting good shots and not getting rewarded. Right now, I feel like I'm not a good player. I shouldn't feel that way.
hitter obviously power
Obviously I'm not a power hitter at all,
champions hard help
I really feel like I can help the Champions Tour. But at the same time, I'm competitive out here. It's kind of hard to say, okay, that's over and let's go to a new chapter. But I'm not sure. I'm going to have to re-evaluate.
british cup experience goal last playing presidents team year
After the experience of playing on the Presidents Cup team last year, my only goal this year was to make the Ryder Cup team. For me, it was more important to play in the Ryder Cup than the British Open.
birdie coming last late lost paid shots sudden thinking tried
It was one of those things where you are thinking you have to do more than you have to coming down the back nine. I tried some shots a little too aggressively and paid the price, made some bogeys. All of a sudden I lost the lead. I did birdie the last two holes, but it was too late at that point.
fun
It is so much fun being part of those teams.
advantage couple good missed took
I had some opportunities that I took advantage of, but missed a couple and made a couple of really good saves.
paid shots thinking tried
It was one of those things where you're thinking you've got to do more than you had to do. I tried some shots a little too aggressively and paid the price.
pink skirt
I've got a pretty pink skirt for you,
