five four full holes picking played rest slowly time
We played four or five holes without the wind. It just started slowly picking up. By the time we got to 6 or 7, it was full gale-force winds, and they were there the rest of the day.
four great
This is a great tournament. But it's not ever going to get more important than the four majors. That's the fundamental problem.
remember shot
I don't remember a shot that I hit, ... But I remember every shot he hit.
confidence goal mentally tired worn year
You go through a whole year and you get tired and worn out mentally. So my goal was to get recharged mentally and come out with some confidence in myself.
I'd like to think I got it started,
changes course golf none picks played wind
None of us played any good, to be honest. When the wind picks up, the golf course changes immensely.
changes course golf nerves none picked played whatever whether wind
None of us played any good, to be honest. The wind picked up, the golf course changes immensely. I was just a little quick. I don't know whether it was the wind or nerves or whatever it was.

I lost in a playoff a couple of years ago. I know my way around this course pretty good. I beg to differ. We'll see what happens.

ask bad bob bogey certainly double feeling figure finished hole keeping next round tee third trying water
Obviously, Bob was in shock, ... We were, too. He finished the hole and I'm keeping his scoring, trying to figure out on the next tee what he made. But I'm certainly not going to ask him. Well, hell, then I'm feeling so bad for him, I get up and yank it right into the water to finish the third round with a double bogey myself.
handle happy onto shot walked
When I walked onto the green, I was happy to see that it was so close, ... I'm thinking, 'I can handle a shot like that.'

I was happy when he gave me that little 8-incher. He said, 'That's good.' And I went, 'Thank God.
gave happy practice thinking won
I was happy when he gave me a little eight-inch (putt) at the last. He said, 'That's good,' and I went, 'Thank God.' I was kind of thinking if I won today, I'd probably practice a little bit, but I think I already did.
dream gives
It gives them their escape. They can dream about other things.
