It was not him today. It was me, ... Tiger has won about 100 tournaments in his career, and he never seems to get a partner who plays well enough to help him out. I certainly didn't.
Your shortcomings show in the alternate shot format and playing with the best player in the world it showed today. I couldn't help Tiger at all.

I did play with Tiger in Australia and it was truly, truly a treat. I think I'm looking forward to that.

He's an incredible player. He's got more talent than maybe anyone out here in his hands and his game. Phil can overpower a golf course like Tiger can. He drove it really, really well today.
If Tiger Woods hits four really good drives, or Vijay (Singh) or Davis (Love III) or Ernie Els, I don't know a course they don't have an advantage on. So you have to keep it in play.
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 very mediocre. I put Tiger in some rough spots. My problems come out in alternate shot when you're playing with the best player in the world. I was outclassed by three guys.

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.
