casual couple economic fan golf good grow hard lose might people pushing subscribe tough tune
With only a couple of networks, people know where to tune in for golf. But you might lose the casual fan who might not subscribe to The Golf Channel. I know they've been pushing hard to grow the tour, and we've had a tough economic environment. I think they did a good job.

Without immediate action in Newfoundland and Labrador . . . we can expect supply shortages.
bit couple days early golf incident issue reason sleep sluggish starting unless week
I was a bit sluggish early in the week. I don't know if that's because I didn't sleep for a couple of days or what, but now I'm starting to feel much better. I really don't see it being an issue at all, unless for some reason I have an incident this week on the golf course, or off the golf course.

The people calling wanted to talk (golf). I wanted their credit card number.
carries goes golf himself obviously seem
I think he's got a lot of charisma, carries himself very well. I can just tell by the way he goes about his business, and he obviously can play golf pretty well, too. So he doesn't seem like he's intimidated by what's going on out here at all.

almost goes golf happening knew nobody opposite says side time until watching wears
I was on the opposite side of the golf course, and there's nobody out there watching us play golf. You knew where she was the whole time. It was almost like a Tiger-type following. You know where she was on the golf course. That says a lot. I don't think that wears off until that goes away for some reason. I just don't see that happening any time soon.
across catch felt looking maybe nervous putt trying
I wasn't even nervous all day because I'm trying to catch the guy. All of a sudden, I've got a putt all the way across the green, big break, and I'm nervous because I'm just trying to two-putt. That's my mistake. But if I had been looking at it all day, then maybe I would have felt that way all the way through the back nine.
advantage came chip easy emotions front great green hit obviously punch run shot took trying
You know, I hit a great shot from where I was (in that divot). I was just trying to punch it down there and run it on the front of the green and it came out perfect, and it went just over the green. I had a pretty easy chip and obviously took advantage of the shot that I had and made it. A lot of emotions on that one hole.
best junior players
You know, he was one of the best junior players of all time.
behind
That was one of the things I'd like to forget. It's all behind me now.
bulldog count hates mentality obviously represent solid somebody thrives
He's obviously been very solid and somebody you can count on to go out and play well and to represent his country. He thrives on it. He's a grinder, he's got that bulldog mentality that he hates to lose.
good separated
I could have separated myself (from the field). It would have been nice, but that's OK. I'm in good position.
advantage greens hits player playing power pressure
If I'm playing a power player and he hits it 350, I just want to hit the fairway. Use the advantage that I'm first to hit into the greens and put pressure on him that way.
