bit challenge players question
I don't think there's any question that there was a bit more challenge for the players who started late.
fun until week
This is a fun week - until you play well,
bad good jumping playing playoffs sure winning
I'm sure they're jumping on Jim's back for not winning all those playoffs. But how good is he playing to get into them? Only that he's in so many playoffs does he have a bad record. The better you play, the more you're going to lose. Because you're going to be there more often.
four happy holes last nice swing
I didn't swing it very well for the first 14 holes, but over the last four holes I got back into it and made some really nice swings, so I am happy about that.
main nine priority rest weeks
I've had nine weeks off with the main priority being rest.
ball pins running sweep tends
The ball tends to sweep into the pins at Augusta. Here, it's always running away from them. This is very tough.
decent honda mind performed round seeing week win year
I had one round there to win (the Honda Classic) and a decent week at Westchester, but that's all. I haven't really performed at all this year. It has been an interesting year and one I wouldn't mind seeing the back of.
davis expecting hole last maybe mine prepared tough
It's actually not a tough way to lose. I was expecting Davis to get up-and-down on the last and I'd have to hole mine out to go to 19. I was prepared for that, but maybe not prepared for him holing out.
convince couple easy finish good mind next reasons strong
I know I've been inconsistent this year. Obviously, there's many reasons for that. But if I finish strong the next couple of months, it will be easy for me in my own mind to convince myself that it was a good year.
couple eventually finish hold less shots struggled worse
Eventually he didn't finish off the match, really, and then I got a couple of breaks. It was more or less up to Vijay. I just hold on in there and really I really struggled with my shots today, worse than yesterday. I don't know what it's going to be like tomorrow.
couple pleased somewhat
I am somewhat pleased but I now need a couple of those at the weekend.
again good last nice problem win year
The only thing I can do as good as last year is win again this year. ... It's still a nice problem to have.
home maybe sunday tiger won
Tiger has won 10 majors, so maybe he can go home on a Sunday night.
difficult enjoy quite
Working on the range, I like that. That's not something that's difficult for me to do. I quite enjoy that end of the practice.
