These two guys, they're going to win this thing several more times.
I just felt like in my mind that if I was going to beat anyone, it was probably going to be their best player. I had enough of Goose in the first two matches so I selected Vijay. And to be honest, I thought if I could play with him and handle him, several guys would be excited about that. It happened that way and then the putt on the 18th was thrilling.
Today it would be Phil because he just won on one of the hardest courses you can play. But Tiger's the one to beat every week. They're going to win this thing several more times, those two.
I thought if I could play with him and handle him, several guys would be excited about that. And then the putt on the 18th was thrilling. Career-wise, it doesn't mean anything. Team-wise, it was awesome.
The 14th was just really a killer. But at the same time, it just leads up to that. There's several other putts that I just couldn't get to go, but it was a lot of fun and great pairing with Phil. I watched a great player win his second Masters, and I felt at least from tee to green I was close, or if not, maybe a little better today.
The 14th hole was really a killer, but there were several other putts -- I just couldn't get one to go. I think if Phil was putting for me, I would have won with 9- or 10-under.
In better ball? That's best ball? That's when you use his seven or eight birdies every round? That's pretty surprising. But again, I've watched a lot of it, and I think he's ready to change all that.
It was huge. I enjoy playing with him, so I chose to play with him if I could get it done.
It was great to see it go in. It was huge.
I'm going to play a lot next year. I'm definitely going to try to make that team. I knew I had to play well this week, and I played OK. ... The last three rounds I played pretty well.
I'm not going to not be disappointed if I don't play well. I expect myself to do well, but I'm not like, 'Oh, well.' I'm not in that category just yet.
I'm disappointed, but I like the way I played and it was a lot of fun.
I'm disappointed, but I like the way I played and I had a lot of fun. I'm certainly tired now, but I made it through 31 holes (Sunday) and hung in there for a long time.
I love it, I think it's just hard.
