exit explosion looked loud next nice round sure turned windows within yards
I was within 100 yards of the exit and there was this huge, loud explosion right next to me. I turned around and looked and the windows were all intact. When I got to the airport, I hopped out and looked and, sure enough, there was a nice little round hole.
accept both captain love work
I would love to be a part of it as both a captain and a player. If it doesn't work out that way, I can accept that.
almost glad hard kids shot wife
It was hard to believe. I'm just glad my wife and kids weren't with me. If it wasn't so serious, it would almost be amusing. I mean, how many times when you're driving, do you get shot at?
ends happen happy random sitting tried
It was just a very random thing. Random things happen in this world. I'm most happy he tried that before I got my kids. Otherwise, my 3-year-old would have been sitting in that seat. Anyway, all's well that ends well.
aussie flag nice side
I've got one Aussie flag on the side of my car. It would be nice to have two.
proud
It's very satisfying. I'm proud that I've done it, but I'm embarrassed I didn't do it 15 years ago.
chipping course golf good hours hurt knees range start takes three time walk work
It takes time to start where I started and try to work off all the flab. You have to give something up, and to me it was always the kind of thing that, 'Well, I can't do it because I've got to work on my game. I've got to work on my chipping, work on my driving. I've got to do something with my game.' I said, 'You know what, it's not going to do me any good at all if I can't walk the golf course because my knees hurt so bad.' I'll give up three hours a day of chipping or three hours on the range to make it so my knees don't hurt.
definitely hurts
That kind of thing definitely hurts a tournament.
biggest bit difference game good great hit move short
You have to move it out there a little bit off the tee, but I think the biggest difference is that you have to hit it straighter. Even with the changes, I still think it's going to come down to having a great short game. It is longer, but if the short game is working, it's going to be a good week.
career decide either golf love point serious time
You get to a point in your career where you either decide it's time to get serious and make some changes, or you quit. I love golf too much, and there's too much to play for to quit.
bad full guy head jack open paper people shake wonder
You open the paper every day and read these things. I think the guy was full of Jack Daniels and had a bad day of work. You just have to shake your head and wonder what people are doing.
happen open paper totally
You open the paper and read these things that happen to people. Totally random.
crazy happens paper pick stuff surreal
It was a very, very surreal experience. You pick up the paper every day and read about crazy stuff that happens to people.
guys shooting surreal
It was a very, very surreal experience. You don't have guys shooting at you very often.
