almost beat couple definitely few gets golfing gone last level played quite seems swing tired tough
I've played with him quite a few times the last couple of years. It seems like he's gone up a level this year. It seems like he's really comfortable with his swing and his game. It seems like he's there every week. He's almost a golfing machine, so to speak. He never gets tired of the game. I think he's definitely going to be very tough to beat this weekend.
golf knee needed nice percent round six thankful
It was a nice round of golf and I needed this. (The knee is) not going to be 100 percent for another six months. I'm just thankful to be walking.
bringing game golf playing practiced ready thanks total
Thanks for bringing that up, I never thought of it. When you play golf tournaments you never think about it. When you are playing you try and be ready with your total game and when that is well groomed and practiced you are ready for the tournament. That has always been my philosophy.

That was exciting stuff. They can show that on The Golf Channel every day instead of all that other stuff they show.
backed bigger elvis gets golf guys legend media
I think he's a legend in the making. You (media) guys have helped, but he's backed it up with his golf game. He's 24. He's probably going to be bigger than Elvis when he gets into his 40s.

Today was a tough day. I looked at my putting stats and I'm down in the bottom half of the field, so I guess that is where my problem is this week.
believe best closed davis elevated gap golf guys humble phil playing tee tiger win
Tiger is not playing as well as he did then. Guys like Vijay, Phil (Mickelson), Davis (Love) and me have elevated a little bit, and the gap has closed a bit. I think guys get to the first tee and really believe they can win with Tiger in the field. Golf will humble the best of them and that's where we are.

When you have a golf course that's so pristine, you just want to play well. Jack Nicklaus has also got something to do with that. Everybody wants to win this golf tournament.
best course form golf longer lots player tournament win
It's got a lot of variety, and you can play the golf course lots of different ways. Basically, the best player that's on form is going to win the tournament ? if you're a longer hitter, shorter hitter.

It's a bit crazy. Why call them World Championships if they're going to be played in the same place all the time? World Golf Championships are meant to promote the game all over the globe.

It's a great test. I think to have different winners like that shows you how good the golf course is.
