ball committed hitting left stayed sure
said Woods. ''I committed to hitting the ball just left of the hole. Just made sure I stayed up on it.
absolutely good hopefully positively ready standing week win
Zero, absolutely zero. I'm here to try to get ready to win this tournament, and hopefully come out of this week positively so I'll be in good standing going into the U.S. Open.
stay turned
You've got to stay patient, stay in the moment, keep grinding, ... You never know what can happen. And it turned out well.
dream gets golf good home open win
This is as good as it gets - to win the Open Championship at the Home of Golf is a dream come true.
drives high longest perfect rough setup
This is a perfect setup for him, because the rough is high and fairways are fast, and he's not the longest driver, but he drives it straight.
feeling hung posted somehow tough
It was tough out there, ... I wasn't feeling all that comfortable with my swing. I hung in there and somehow posted a number.
lands pin second shot
It was an unbelievable second shot through the trees. I mean, come on. He lands it there, just over the bunker, perfect, pin high, ho hum.
ball close good miss pay pins south
The South Course, you'd better have the ball-striking up there. It's just that some of these pins now, they are so close to the edges, you have to be pretty precise. If you do miss it, you're going to pay the price, and I think good ball strikers are going to do well here.
chance hung putting quite win
Quite frankly, I probably shouldn't have been in the playoff. I wasn't putting very well at all. I just hung in there and hung in there. ... For me to have a chance to win the title, I was lucky.
bad control couple damage fit good hit move par post shoot somehow somewhere wheel
Put it this way. If I hit a couple of bad shots, I feel like it's not the end of the world. I can fit it and I can move on and I can still post a really good number. Before, it would be damage control and somehow try and wheel around it and shoot somewhere around par or even under par. But that's not the case.
couple escape good happen hopefully last par shape
I didn't really put myself in very good shape on 16, so hopefully I can escape with a par there and make something happen the last couple of holes.
aim both hitting miss tough yards
I did not play well at all, ... I had a two-way miss this week. You can't aim a two-way miss even if those fairways are 300 yards wide. If you get it hitting both ways, it's tough to play.
roll
I don't feel like I'm on a roll at all,
both hitting miss speak tough yards
Obviously, we both didn't play very well, ... I can't speak for him, but as I said, I had a two-way miss and couldn't find a fairway that's 300 yards wide. If you're hitting it both ways, it's tough to play.
