thinking winning one-day
I do not think I could go on living unless I felt that one day I might win the Open Championship at St. Andrews.
sports golf winning
You learn to accept defeat graciously in golf. Unlike other sports, the game itself is a constant opponent. It never stops. A golfer is fortunate to win a few times. We spend our whole lives trying to conquer something, and we lose a lot more than we win.

almost continue course fun great love matter nice seen takes week
Well, I'd love to continue to see (the course) dry. I think a super-long course would almost be a little too much, but I don't know. It's very remote, as I said (after the first round). I don't know where this week is going to lead, but I've had so much fun playing. I've seen some great things happen. That's always nice no matter what you're doing. I'm just going to kind of see where it takes me this week.
ball change definitely help
We'll have to change gears. It's definitely going to help the long- ball hitters.

There is nothing like it. You cannot imagine what it's like. It's a personal achievement and you feel like you've gotten through something very difficult.
takes week
I don't know where this week is going to lead, but I've had so much fun. I'm just going to kind of see where it takes me.
execute good round
I am disappointed. I didn't execute shots. I'm going to try to retrieve this round and have a good back nine.
wish
I wish to say it was different, but it's doubtful.
shot target
But the shot has to be perfect. The target is very small.
