deli food manhattan spent stop time trip whenever
Whenever I'm in Des Moines, I always make a trip to Manhattan Deli for a sandwich. I spent a lot of time there when I was going to college at Drake, so it's usually my one 'go-to' food stop when I'm in town.
good green guys hitting middle shots time
We just weren't hitting very good shots and those guys were hitting it right down the middle of the fairway and the middle of the green all the time and we (were) not.
enjoy free holiday house might movies time wife
When I'm off the golf course, and my wife and I have free time, which is not very often, we really enjoy movies. I'm a movie nut; she might even be more so. Holiday in our house is the Oscars.
club clubs devote four percentage three time using
Try to devote the percentage of time for each club that you're going to be using on the golf course. I like to have two or three different clubs that I practice with, not four or five.
diligent time works
My boring, mundane, diligent kind of golf works sometimes. Actually, it works all the time. And sometimes, on the greatest stages, it really does flourish.
average par player rough time wear yards
If you put me in the fairway at my average distance into a par 4, 175 to 180 yards, and you put another player in the rough 120 yards from the green, over time, I'm going to wear him out.
davis experience good hitting played putting start
I've played a lot with Davis and he's pretty simple. When you're hitting it as good as he is, and you start putting it good, it's a good combination, especially with the experience he has.
animal benign pedal
The wind's been pretty benign and that's kind of the animal here. You've got to pretty much put the pedal to the metal.
We don't have a DaVon in this group,
couple experience good guy hard hitting missed putt starting
When you're hitting it as good as he is, and starting to putt decent, it's a hard combination especially with a guy who has as much experience as he does. I feel good about how I played. I missed a couple putts on the back, but that was probably about it. No regrets.
ahead biggest coming driving far good guys hit keys means spot swing transition
I don't hit it as far as a lot of guys do, so I have to be in the right spot in the fairway to score, and that means driving it well. The two biggest keys for me are to make a good transition and to keep my hands ahead of the clubhead through impact. I want to feel as if my swing is two swings: one going back and another coming down.
competition family golf heat hope job loved lucky man people succeeded understood
Golf is not my priority. I would hope people see me as a Christian man who loved his family, who loved being in the heat of competition and sometimes succeeded at it; who understood that golf was his job and that he was very lucky to play it for a living.
complete early gave life winter
Early in the winter of 2002, I gave my life to the Lord. Before I was one, I always thought being a Christian would be boring. In reality, it has been the complete opposite.
dream easter family sunday
Winning the 2007 Master's was a dream fulfilled; culminating on Easter Sunday with my family was very special. You couldn't write it up any better.
