atmosphere caught cylinders goes guy help hitting jim mentally motivated playing pressure tiger
He really wanted to be Tiger's partner, and Tiger can't help but get motivated by that. Jim won't get caught up in the atmosphere or the pressure that goes with playing with him. You get Tiger a guy who is hitting on all cylinders mentally and won't get intimidated by that atmosphere, and that's a big plus.
complain good guys hitting playing scoring shots somebody
Somebody is always going to play good. The guys that complain are guys like me who aren't playing well, or not scoring well. You feel like you're hitting good shots and not getting rewarded. Right now, I feel like I'm not a good player. I shouldn't feel that way.
coming compared course flew looked looks playing
We flew over coming in, and you could see just how sparse it looked compared to what it used to look like. But the playing part of the course still looks the same.
best golfer playing
That's the best golfer in the world playing at his best.
believe four good playing rounds truly
I'm not here just to walk two rounds or four rounds and just show up. I want to be able to be competitive, and I truly believe I can still be competitive when I'm playing well and feeling good.
against cup generate guys hanging hatred media phil playing stuff tiger together week
We play against guys we play with in the Ryder Cup week in and week out. We're all friends. Why the media want to generate any of this hatred - that's the problem. You even read stuff about Tiger and Phil disliking each other. How come they're always hanging together and playing ping-pong?
course expect golf playing pride
There's a lot of pride out here. You don't expect this golf course to play that hard. It used to be that if you weren't playing well, you could always make some birdies. I've made two birdies all week.
british cup experience goal last playing presidents team year
After the experience of playing on the Presidents Cup team last year, my only goal this year was to make the Ryder Cup team. For me, it was more important to play in the Ryder Cup than the British Open.
again bigger honor jack team
It was an honor that I thought was even bigger than making the team on your own, ... for him to think enough of me to be on the team. Just to come out and play for Jack again is pretty neat.
remembered skins skirt winning
Sometimes I think I'm better remembered for the Skins skirt than for winning the Players.
difficult green hole walk
That's the only hole that's overdone. It was difficult before. Now you walk off the green with a 3 and feel like you stole something, and it shouldn't be that way.
age biggest care work
I work at it really hard, ... I try to take care of myself. I'm focused. I want to play. I think that's the biggest difference. Age doesn't really matter.
good grand hoping win
I was hoping he'd win because I would've been part of history, part of the Grand Slam, and he's a good friend,
level life talent timing
You just never know where life is going to take you, you never know where your talent level is going to be and timing is everything.
