Our place was like Noah’s Ark. We had 14 people, two dogs, two cats and about 60 budgies in our house.

Glad I wasn’t thinking, … about that.

[But one Aussie term needs no translation to American English: ass whipping. That’s what folks in the antipodes were calling it last weekend when a team of pros from the Southern Hemisphere and Japan beat...

Elkington has got to be saying, ‘I’m Australian and live in Houston – the heat is kind of cool here.’

I just had a sandwich, … and I felt much better.

I played well. I was able to move the ball around the way I wanted and I putted well.

It looked good from my angle.

Major-championship golf, you’re just really concentrating on more or less the shot you’re trying to hit, … If you get too far ahead of that, you don’t seem to do too well.

I’m probably as experienced tomorrow as anyone. I’ve played in a lot of major championships and won this tournament. I’ve had a lot of good majors, a lot of good performances in this event particularly.

I never think about the ones that got away, … I don’t think I’m finished winning tournaments. I feel really young. I may not look it, but I feel it.

Being Australian and living in Houston, … I thought it was quite cool.

I couldn’t do what Vijay has done, put it that way, … I doubt he knows where the light switches are in his house.

I’ll be the first of the leaders with a chance to post a score better than Tiger’s and hopefully it will be 5-under.

It’s a notch up from what we play week in and week out, that’s for sure,

It’s a shame the crowds didn’t get to see the finish, and CBS on TV. I know I would have liked to have been watching. I had a front seat.

I’ve always had a good head for golf,

It was a romp from the start. We poured it on and poured it on.

The last place I wanted to hit was the right bunkers so I was trying to guard from that and I overguarded and hit the tree and it came out. I got a great break...

I’ve been out of the limelight. But people forget quick. I’ve done a lot of this. I’ve never been afraid of the arena. I guess I’m a different guy compared to the way Tiger collects...

When I first saw the course 18 years ago, it was so intimidating. It was a new style of golf, a new concept. So it took some time for guys to learn to like it....

The tournament is wide open, I would say now.

I was thinking to myself, ‘This could be like when I won the Players Championship in ’91,’ … I was in a divot, made a nice shot there.

I’ll be the first guy going through those three holes and it’s my job to get a birdie or two. It’s a shame we didn’t get to finish. It was a bit of a to...

There’s a lot to be said to be the last guy out there, having the final say.

Old style,

I wrote Adam a note after the Players telling him that was the hardest tournament he would ever win. Now I think Adam is equipped for the majors. I don’t know if anybody else is...

There’s a lot to be said about the last guy out there has the final say,

Our contingent is building strength. It’s ridiculous to think that somebody won’t win one soon.
