It's something that comes throughout the season, ... The first time I obviously wanted to be player of the year, then I said let's see if I can do it again. This year I was totally focused on majors, thinking if I won all four majors, I could become player of the year.
I'm not going to the range. I'm going home. I'm just going to get focused and get my game ready for next week.
In a situation like that, you have to focus on the things you can control. We just kept on grinding.
The way I look at it is I have to play my own game. I can't focus on any particular player because there's too much to do on my own. I have enough on my plate.
This is quite a place. The views are absolutely spectacular. You got to try and stay focused on your game and not look too much at the views.
Last year was a blur with all I was going through (off the course) and sometimes I don't know how I managed to stay focused when I was inside the ropes,
You just know it's going to be slow out there tomorrow and you just have to accept it and stay focused on your own game.
I'm very competitive. I'd do anything to beat them all.
I know the young ones are going to take over eventually, there is no doubt about it. I love the position I'm in, and I'm not going to let it go too easily.
I know where I'm at on the money list. I'm here to reach my own goals, play my own game.
I'm looking forward to returning to Hamilton Farm to try to improve on last year's performance. A match-play event brings great variety to the schedule.
The atmosphere is there, and the talk is there, and now we have to just play. I think it's going to be a lot of fun. We don't voice our opinions the way they do. Hopefully we can let our clubs do the talking.
It was horrible, no fun at all. It was a really tough day -- it was windy, rainy and cold. I just wanted to finish and have a cup of coffee in the clubhouse.
It was just one of those days. I am happy with the way I am playing, I just couldn't get it together today. I'm just glad I made birdie on the last hole. Hopefully I can turn it around.
