It feels great to be, you know, in competition. You know, I didn't play as well as I wanted today, but I felt like I played really strong during the back, the last couple of holes. Hopefully, I will follow through tomorrow. Who knows?
Then a couple years later, I was in a tournament and a bee comes over on my hand and stings me out of nowhere,
I never had to wait like that before, ... I missed a couple of 4- or 5-foot putts that I should have made.
Ty Tryon made a lot of money after turning pro, but he might not have been ready. I don't want to make a lot of money for a couple of months and then not be ready.
I'm proud that I played solidly throughout the whole round. There were a couple of holes where I didn't feel that comfortable, but I just survived on those holes and I came back.
Well, I've played in rain before. I've played in the wind before. I played when it was cold before. But all put together was really hectic,
Playing like this isn't really fun, but there's nothing else I'd rather be doing.
I think God destined that I play. I think it's all in the books already.
Michelle really likes to chat with me, but she is so busy these days. She likes to share the good things and bad things with me,
The positive energy I received from the crowd was awesome. I felt like I basically knew half of the people in the gallery.
I'm allergic to bees, ... They seem to like me a lot.
I didn't really feel any different than when I played as an amateur,
I didn't want to write anything on my scorecard until I made a birdie.
When I play, my mind-set is that I can beat everyone, ... (But) I don't really think I'm the best yet.
