The '92 U.S. Open at Pebble got out of control. I have never played on a harder golf course in harder conditions than that last round at Pebble.

Invariably something happens at a U.S. Open where the golf course gets out of control one day, they have one pin that's out of control. It always seems to happen. But they've gotten better about the height of the rough.

I don't think it's healthy to take yourself too seriously.

If you can't laugh at yourself, then how can you laugh at anybody else? I think people see the human side of you when you do that.

greens hit lee played regulation six standing today yesterday
I told you all yesterday that if I went out today and played Payne Stewart's game, I'd be standing here with the trophy. But I didn't do that. I hit six fairways in regulation today; Lee hit 11. I hit 10 greens in regulation; Lee hit 14. Bingo. That's why I didn't win.
