It's going to be a golf school for about seven or eight months of the year. We're going to combine golf training with fitness. It's going to have my name on it, but the people that come here, they are going to be able to work with my swing coach and my fitness coach and once in a while I will make an appearance and play some golf as well.
It shows a lot of consistency. It's tough to rate this against some of my other accomplishments because they're all so different. But to do something nobody has ever done is going to rank right up there.
It's hard work, ... I'm 2-down, I'm 1-up, I'm in a playoff and all of a sudden I've won.
It's a very interesting concept. It's totally something everybody is talking about. Hopefully, something good will happen.
It's been a long day. A very long day. But I'm very happy with my score. I thought I played some good golf.
It's great to get off to a good start, but I think it's also important to finish well.
It seems like I get my second wind by the end of the year. I've had a nice little break after my trip to Europe. I played one event and I saw my coach the next week, so I feel like I'm ready to finish strong. I really do.
It wasn't that bad, but I made a few mistakes out there. It's been a hectic week as tournament host, but now it's all over and when I woke up this morning I thought now I'm inside the ropes and nobody's chasing me.
It wasn't the finish I wanted, but sometimes you just take what you've got. I was trying to make a few more birdies, but it didn't happen.
It was brutal out there. I just wanted to go into the clubhouse for a coffee.
It was really a key putt for me. I could not have made birdies at a better time.
It was a wonderful finish. It wasn't the world's best tee shot, but then I got the ball on the green and rolled in the putt.
It was a very, very exciting day, looking at the scoreboard. There was a lot of up and down, obviously. But we were persistent. We kept grinding and grinding and grinding.
It's very important to take the lead early on. You want to set the pace. It's great to have the momentum on your side. It's tough to fight from behind.
