afraid collects compared forget guess guy people pop tiger
I've been out of the limelight. But people forget quick. I've done a lot of this. I've never been afraid of the arena. I guess I'm a different guy compared to the way Tiger collects wins. I pop up once in a while.

I've always had a good head for golf,

course golf great greens guys hit learn none precise saw style time took
When I first saw the course 18 years ago, it was so intimidating. It was a new style of golf, a new concept. So it took some time for guys to learn to like it.

There's none of this hit-four-out-of-14-fairways-and-still- shoot-68 on that golf course.

It was a romp from the start. We poured it on and poured it on.
