I think I quieted down our talk there for about 10 minutes. I don't think he wanted to get near me.
I think it sets up for my game. When I come here I feel very good on the course.
I think it's set up for my game. It's set up for a lot of guys, but when I come here, I feel very good on the course. I feel like I'm a very good lag putter, and you have to do that here. My eye catches the slopes pretty well.
I watched a great player win his second Masters. He hit the ball solid, where he was looking and it was an easy, easy 69.
I watched a great player win his second Masters, and I felt like at least from tee to green, I was close, if not maybe a little better (Sunday). But you cannot miss putts and try and win tournaments, whether it's the Atlanta Classic or the Masters.

I want to use these words correctly ... that the PGA Tour has kind of devoured some of the other tours, ... I always have gone down to Australia, and there's just no time to go. As Tiger said, it would totally help that.
I was just finishing on the 18th hole and he birdied No. 9 and 10. The roars, it was the most unbelievable thing I've ever heard.
His swing is getting tighter, getting better, and he's getting back to a point that he's dominant, which he's been this year.

There aren't that many young guys that can get into this tournament, and when they do they are great players already. It's not like there's qualifying for this. You can go qualify for the U.S. Open at 22 years old, make it and play well and everyone is ranting and raving about it.
When he comes to these tournaments, it really does wear him down. You walk around and have your name yelled at for four to five hours a day, every day, it wears you down. Literally, screaming your name all day, you just get worn out.
Unless we get rain to soften it up, if it's windy then 2 or 3 under might not win.
Other than those few holes, I had a lot of birdie chances. To be five under, blow four strokes, then get five strokes back is a pretty good way to end the day.
