bit control putt speed welcome wish
Welcome to golf, ... I wish we could say we could putt well every day, but it doesn't happen. The only thing you can do is control your speed every day. This week, my speed has been a little bit erratic.
bit hard hit left played robert wind
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.
ball bit feet four low miss past power putt seems sure threw year
That putt -- I've had that putt it seems like for three, four years, and I miss it low every year and always power it three, four feet past the hole, ... I made sure I threw the ball out there a little bit more
bit
When you're out there playing, you're playing. When you're away from the course, obviously, things are a little bit different. But when you're on the course, you're playing, you're grinding.
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.
bit good higher hit miss rough whether
I think it's hit or miss whether you get a good lie, because the rough is a little bit higher and thicker this year.
ball bit greens rather roll smooth though
We're on smooth greens again. Even though they're a little bit grainy, you'd much rather see the ball roll than bounce.
ball bit draw green
I had to put the ball on the green (17) and try to make a putt. I had a shot. I had to draw it a little bit and it didn't draw at all.
ball four golf hit irons move nature
We hit four irons off most of the tees but it was just the nature of the golf course. You've just got to put the ball in play and move on.
believe dreams four hard kid opportunity playing thrill winning won
I've won four and, I tell you what, it's hard to believe really, just because it's the Masters. This is something every kid dreams of playing in, and, hopefully, one day even winning it. To have the opportunity to win four already is the thrill of the lifetime.
ball hard hit hitting
I've never hit the ball this far. So hitting a ball this far, it's hard to keep it in the fairway.
disrespect heard offense
I've never heard of him. No offense or disrespect at all. I just didn't know who he was.
course finish golf handle lucky played time tournament weather
I've played well here. But this golf course didn't really handle the weather too well, and this time of year, you get rain. We've been lucky to finish this tournament on time.
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.
