I don’t know where else I’ll end up needing to do that, but it was a huge help here. I’ve got an extra 20, 25 yards with that new driver that draws and I used...

I love what the guys on the tour have done. I want to help out those guys. I just think their efforts are tremendous.

It was a fun day, a fun start. I birdied the first couple of holes and was off and running. I looked up and I was 6 under through seven. That was a good feeling.

It’s a very fair test, but I can’t imagine what guys had done in the wind.

We were asked to wait until after to sign right by the putting green, which is what we have all tried to do, to make the attempt to go over there and sign for everybody.

Because it was not the final round, I wasn’t really concerned. I should be now. I’m four back, and I’ve got to make a run tomorrow.

I like the way it looks to my eye.

I think Jack has said he’ll put Tiger and me together a lot. I’m really excited to be playing with Tiger.

Let’s say she’s a 15-year-old boy playing in men’s tournaments, in the Amateur Public Links and winning these matches, or coming within strokes of missing the cut in a PGA tournament. When I was 17...

It’s nice knowing the surface. It was smooth putting all around the course.

The more you study the course, the more you appreciate what a great test it is.

Not such a great idea. It backfired on me almost, and I was fortunate enough to hold (Howell) off. I’ll go back to my regular-length driver and try and hit some more fairways.

It’s just hard to fathom.

I have heard a lot of good things about this golf course and I have been waiting to come up here. It worked out perfectly the week before the Presidents Cup. It gives me a...

I don’t know. You’re asking me a political question. If you want to know how to hit a fade, let me help you.

I love coming out here. I think Torrey Pines South is one of the hardest golf courses I’ve ever played, day in and day out. It’s the longest I’ve ever played. Take away the tournament...

I love it. It’s very similar to Augusta. … This course has very similar shot values and similar greens.

It’s not like Augusta, where rough is such a big factor. Here, both length and accuracy can be a huge asset. I haven’t had as many chances here as I would have liked or would...

This is one of the biggest catastrophes in the United States. They will read about it in their history books throughout their education years. I wanted them to see it from the destructive stage, and...

I had played the course exclusively with a fade, but there are a number of holes where you can move the ball left-to-right (draw) and have it be very effective.

It was fun. I felt like I had pretty good control. I hit some good shots. I seem to roll them in today. I’m optimistic for the next few days.

To win here where Jack Nicklaus has won a couple of times, I touched his plaque there on 18 just to get some good karma, makes it a memorable and very special week for me.

It has been a good year, but unfortunately where I really want to play well is the majors. I have not had as good a performance (in majors) as I did last year.

So that’s where I came up with the two-driver concept. I can hit a little controlled cut on the holes where distance isn’t as big of a factor. I can use that draw driver and...

When you walk down the fairways at Augusta, it’s unlike any other tournament for us as players. It’s a different feeling. You have people taking pictures of you and you feel like you’re almost an...

I drove it very well I thought, when I did miss the fairway it was a yard or two in the first cut.

He’s played some great golf in majors, and he’s won some big tournaments. He’s just a tremendous player. Last year wasn’t the year he wanted. He came back this year really hungry to play well,...

If it’s into the wind, I don’t think anybody is going to be able to get over that water. But the closer part of that lake, no doubt (it favors long hitters).

There was a shot where I could have hit 3-wood underneath the tree limbs and got it right down by the green. But if it doesn’t come off, I’m looking at 6. There’s an example...

They do not value the education the way I was brought up to value it. I think a college education is important no matter what you do in life. It just seems the focal point...

I hate to play a tournament in which I’m not contending. It’s just not any fun for me.

I don’t think about ultimately what my legacy will be. I’m just glad I’ve gotten started in winning major championships because two years ago I hadn’t.

I don’t really want to trade next year. But I certainly enjoyed having the jacket put on me rather than putting it on [someone else].

It was just a day where I was able to drive the ball in play. I drove it in play, hit good iron shots and I had great touch around the greens, or a lot...

I look back on the old Masters highlights and I watched some things that I’ve done, and I’ve learned from those experiences. It’s taken me time and years of seeing what’s worked well and what...

I hope I will continue to play well and take the momentum to Augusta next week.

It was a fun day, fun start, birdied the first couple holes and was off and running. I made some putts which felt great. I don’t know what else to say, but it was a...

To be honest, I was so occupied banging the ball around the ocean floor that I didn’t see what he did. I lost the tournament by a couple and Kenny … we tied for first.

It wasn’t quite as stressful a round.

As much as I want to be part of the history of this tournament and of this great game of golf, what I really try to do is prepare my best for each and every...

I’m hoping I get in contention without playing any more.

I don’t think there’s any magic in four majors, there can only be four majors, like tennis. There are four tournaments that tend to stand out with history and challenge and strength of field and...

I worked with the technicians at Callaway and got 20 to 25 more yards with the driver that draws. My normal driver is like a 3-wood. I needed (the extra distance) to combat the added...

I do think the course doesn’t favor any one style of play. When the rough was added and made so thick around the greens, I think it gave an advantage to the player that kept...

I was actually pleasantly surprised today with some of the drives I hit, being able to keep up with John. So maybe I don’t need to try to pick up as much yardage as I...

It was nice. Unexpected but nice.

I think I played well, but I didn’t score the best.

The big thing for me is that I need an end point. I can go at it hard, with the idea that once you go to this point, you can take some time off. What...

It’s a hard golf course. That’s why I don’t play it other than in the tournament. It’s too hard for me.

It’s not the easiest thing to do. On the other hand, when you’re playing well and you have some confidence, if you just get a couple of putts to go in, it sets the tone...
