You must play boldly to win.

Know how to win by following the rules

An athlete must have a certain cockiness to succeed and win, but an athlete must also care about the game he or she plays.

When I was playing in a junior tournament one time, I missed a short putt and threw my putter into the trees. I went on to win the tournament and later, instead of my dad congratulating me, he told me that if I ever threw a club again, I'd never play in another golf tournament. I haven't thrown a club since.

If you can concentrate on what you're doing and have the desire to do the things you have to do to win, you'll succeed.

The fans motivated me. They gave me the incentive to want to play and to want to win and to continue to play as my career progressed. They were never a distraction.
