It has been slowly changing, but the Ryder Cup has shown it. We are every bit as good.

caught few game good michael played quite
I played so well the first few days, but Michael played well today, ... I couldn't get at him. I caught him a few times, but I couldn't get 1- up on him. My game just wasn't quite good enough.
few gone holes massive might win won
If I win the hole, to have gone from 3 down to 1 up in a few holes would have been massive psychologically. I might have won from there.

I'm bitterly disappointed, particularly having fought so hard, to finish as poorly as I did,
good great played score
It was great today. I feel I played better than a 68, but it is a good score and we'll take it.

I didn't play as well today as I had the first three days. If this was a stroke play event I'd have been well ahead because I played so well the first three days. But that's the way it goes. Michael played well today.
caught few game good quite
I caught him a few times but I couldn't get one up on him. My game just wasn't quite good enough.
sports football morning
Everybody who plays top-level sport, whether it's golf or football, or whatever, needs to get into 'The Zone'... For me personally, on the morning of a round, preparation is always about getting into the zone. The less I communicate with other people, the better. I'm trying to rehearse in my mind what I am working on in my game: going through my swing keys, going through my putting keys. When I get to the course I get the pin positions for the day and I'll analyze those. I'll make a strategy for the golf course and look how I'm going to play it
golf exam week
We all knew the exam we were going to sit this week.
