Golf is about knowledge, and studying another player - more than listening to a teacher - is the best way to get it.
The people who know me, the people who see the passion I have for this game and the respect for it, they know that I don't cut any corners in the way I approach golf.
Galleries are nice to me. I sign a lot of autographs.
My journey has been a very slow build-up. Each year has been a step upward. I've never actually gone backward.
It never really crossed my mind that I was ever going to win a major. I always said that if you win a major, that's fine. If you don't, you tried your best.
Whenever you're in a position to win, you don't want to let it go.
You win one and then you win another. You feel more comfortable and more confident, and it snowballs. You can't wait to get to the next hole and play better.
I hope she misses the cut. She doesn't belong here.
When they say America is the land of opportunity, it's true. If you work hard, people appreciate you.
If I don't like someone, I'll let that person know. I'm not very diplomatic. I understand that.
Golf is a passion that will stay with me forever. That's all I know.
There are probably guys who could be superstars but aren't because they didn't work at it.
I am proud of my achievements, my work ethic, and the way I live my life. The PGA Tour not only treated me unfairly, but displayed a lack of professionalism that should concern every professional golfer and fan of the game.
The green is so narrow that if you over-club, you've got an impossible bunker shot. If you're short, you're pretty much dead.
