amateur believe boy close coming cut fathom junior links missing playing public strokes time winning within year
Let's say she's a 15-year-old boy playing in men's tournaments, in the Amateur Public Links and winning these matches, or coming within strokes of missing the cut in a PGA tournament. When I was 17 I couldn't come close to making a cut, and at the time I was doing very well in junior golf. I just can't believe any 15 year old, especially a young girl, could be doing what she's doing. I can't fathom it. It's just amazing.
winning play guy
Its just as disappointing as it was thrilling to win the Masters. To come very close, to play so hard for 72 holes and play better than everybody but one guy is disappointing.
winning games numbers
The only way to win tournaments is with the short game. Over half your shots out here are within 30 or 40 yards. Ballstriking is where I'm trying to improve, yes, but more to eliminate big numbers than make birdies.
thinking winning play
I don't think my style of play is what has prevented me from winning major championships. I think that execution has been more of a factor.
winning giving trying
What I like to do is to try to win as many tournaments and as many majors as I can, and with him [Tiger Woods] in the field, it just gives it more credibility, whatever it is I am able to accomplish.
golf winning games
The winner of this tournament doesn't just win a major. He become a part of the history of the game.
winning play trying
I would rather try a shot to win than play safe and finish second.
golf winning opportunity
I think it's more than whether or not you win or lose. It's having that opportunity on that final round, final nine, to come down the stretch with a chance to win.
fun winning giving
Changing would not give me the best chance to win. I need to have fun. I need to attack.
golf winning play
The object of golf is not just to win. It is to play like a gentleman, and win.
added combat driver huge length needed
It was a huge help. I needed the new driver to combat the added length here at Augusta.
ball good momentum next round solid tomorrow week
I still have one more round tomorrow and I want to play that, not just smart, but solid. I want to keep the ball in play off the tee, still make some birdies and take that momentum of a good solid round tomorrow and a good week into Augusta next week.
greatest masters
I still think that was the greatest Masters ever. That was awesome.
close course easily remotely
It could very easily be double-digit-over-par to win. If they make it remotely close to USGA standards, the course will be very close to unplayable.
