I really miss a lot of my friends out there.
life
I feel like my life is pretty special.
success
Hopefully I'll continue to have the success I've had.
I look at a streak as I don't lose - literally.
I saw a person that I never thought I would ever become.
I like to pick my causes and not be forced into doing something.
far
I don't think golf has ever been any pressure as far as having to succeed.
heard huge pumped
We heard he's long, but come on. All of a sudden, you hear this huge roar. He pumped it on the green. I don't have that shot.
basically biggest changed last swing task
Our biggest task was from '97 through '98, when I changed my swing to where it's at now. After that, it was basically kind of maintenance. I've been doing that the last two years a lot on my own.
heard quiet wish
Other than that, it was really quiet where we were. I wish I could have heard what was going on.
beginning course fast golf might playing rain scores somehow wednesday
I thought at the beginning of the day, there might be two scores in the 60s today. The golf course is playing really difficult. It's fast now. As always, if there's no rain here, the golf course is completely different from Wednesday to Thursday. It somehow just dries out miraculously overnight.
atmosphere bit british factor guess major masters media near novelty nowhere open shots talked won year
I think the atmosphere is nowhere near what it was in 2000 because I had won the U.S. Open by 15 and the British Open by eight, so 23 shots in two tournaments is pretty good. This year I've won two major championships. The Masters was a little bit closer, but I won the British by five. The atmosphere is also a little different because I've done this before. I guess from some of the media I talked to the novelty factor is not there anymore; I've already done it.
changes fix head last list needed ready
Last year, I had a long way to go. I had a lot of different things I needed to fix to be ready for Augusta. This year, the list is a lot shorter, and the changes aren't as big. From that standpoint, I've got a head start.
dog fall finally learned sit talk
I would talk to my dog and he would sit there and listen, and he'd fall asleep. I finally learned how to do that, without stuttering all over myself.
