I'm more than pleased. I don't want to use the word relieved, because it means so much to win this championship, but it's been a tough week. To top this great season off with a win against the best players in the world, it just doesn't get much better than this.
I want to end this season the way I started. I played really well early on and I'd like to finish that way.
The season is far from over for me and for some other players,
This has been another great season and this victory caps it off.
Naturally, I'm pleased with my season in many different ways and especially because I've played less tournaments and still won so much,
I played four solid rounds of golf and I want to try to finish the season as hot as the way I started it (three wins in a row).
We still have more tournaments, and I think we've got another six to play in, so the season is far from over for me and for some other players. There's a lot of things that are at stake...Vare Trophy.
To top this great season off with another win against the best players in the world, it just does not get much better than this, ... I love it, I really do. This is very, very satisfying.
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.
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.
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.
