The only thing you can do is take a learning experience from it, positives and negatives, and apply them to the future. What did you do right, what did you do wrong, and I did a lot of things right this week,
calendar four grand hold majors people
To be able to hold all four majors - the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open, PGA - all concurrently I think is the Grand Slam. But a lot of people have a different opinions on that. People think you have to win it in the same calendar year.
certainly love playing
The PGA, over the years that I've played, has certainly been very fair. They are set up stern, but fair. I think that's why we all love playing that championship because they never go over the edge.
anyone bigger chance compliments events great interest list majors means money player ultimate win year
The Player of the Year means a lot because it's from your peers. That is like the ultimate compliment.

Finally I made three good strokes and it happened to me on the last three holes, 16 and 17 and 18.

It played hard. It (the wind) was down off the left when I hit. When Robert (Allenby) hit it was in off the right. The wind was just swirling enough where it made it a little bit difficult.
ability amount bear golf inordinate pressure pull quality shots shoulder somebody
It's not physical, where you go up there and put a shoulder in somebody and take him out. It's about the ability to bear down and pull out quality golf shots on your own, and put an inordinate amount of pressure on you're opponent. That's the only thing you can do in our sport.
ball hit playing putt shoot solid
It's not like I go out there and I hit the ball just unbelievable and putt unbelievable to shoot these scores, ... I'm just playing solid golf. This is the way I feel I can play every day.
