69 Quotes by Phil Mickelson

As professional golfers, we like to pride ourselves on the ability to block out things and focus in only on the shot at hand and only on the round. You're talking about not just the best player in the game, but the best at being able to do that, to block everything out. I don't think that it will be a factor in Tiger's game at all.

As much as I want to be part of history, of the history of this tournament and part of the history of the game, it's not something I dwell on. Starting tomorrow, we'll start preparing for Winged Foot.

It's the one hole that I've ever seen where there's no bail-out. Usually, one side of a hole is trouble and the other side is playable. On that particular hole, you have to hit essentially a perfect shot or miss it within a certain margin of error.

The next major isn't for another seven months. I just want to relish this, and enjoy the fact that for the next seven months, I'm the most recent major winner.

It's an amazing feeling to be the winner and to be able to hold this trophy.

I'm going to try and keep stride with Tiger and maybe we can have another shot at it on Sunday like we did last year.

I knew it was going to be a long, tough day. But in the end, it was real fun and I ended up playing well.

I needed to combat the added length here at Augusta. This is the only course that I can think of that I will probably do it. I did it last week to get accustomed to it. I don't know where else I'll end up needing to do that, but it was a huge help here.

I played OK, I'm not disappointed. I don't like shooting over par, but that just means I need to put a good round together tomorrow.
