He's ready. He hit it like he normally does ? missed the fairway for the first six holes and then didn't miss a shot for the next 12.

I didn't even think about making that putt. I haven't made one all weekend anyway.

I didn't even think about making that one. I haven't made any all weekend, why make that one? Thank God I could two-putt.
coming drive drove enthusiasm gave hit phenomenal round
I drove it phenomenal in the Pro-Am Wednesday. That gave me the enthusiasm coming into today's round because if you don't drive it well here, you're cooked. I think I hit 10 fairways today, but still drove it pretty good.
anybody battle certainly expecting week
I don't think anybody was expecting this kind of a battle the first week of the year. I certainly wasn't. I'm exhausted.
fit name
How's my name going to fit on that thing?
blessed talent work
I don't like to practice, I don't like to work out, ... There are a lot of things that I should be doing that I don't like to do. I was blessed with a God-given talent to play golf, is all I can say.
birdie couple felt left strokes
I left a couple of strokes out there ... that's why making birdie on 18 really felt good, kind of making up for that,
golf wanted ifs
If I had hit it like I wanted to I'd have holed it.
distance golf thinking
When I'm in a zone, I don't think about the shot or the wind or the distance or the gallery or anything; I just pull a club and swing.
golf land hard
Hit it hard. It will land somewhere.
golf games idiotic
Golf is just a game - and an idiotic game most of the time.
birdie course good happened history last management playing smart staying time tournament using weekend won
I never thought I would say I won a tournament with my head, ... Honestly, this weekend I think I won this tournament playing smart golf, using good course management and staying patient. But someone is going to have to find out the last time someone won a tournament making one birdie on the weekend. That may not have happened before in the history of golf.
days good happen news possibly today
The good news about making no birdies today is that it can't possibly happen two days in a row.
