I will say I love competing, and I was in a great era of playing with young Phil Mickelson and older Greg Norman and Nick Price. I don't know if YA Title could throw the ball these days, but you can play golf for a long, long time.

I didn't hit the ball like I was 46. But I putted like I was 66.

Really in all my years on Tour, in the U.S. Open I probably played great golf in two of them, out of maybe 20, so it's a lot of work.

As far as swing and techniques are concerned, I don't know diddly squat. When I'm playing well, I don't even take aim.

Everybody teaches a system. I just try to shoot where I'm aiming. I play by sight and feel not by technical thoughts.

Always count your blessings. Be thankful you are able to be out on a beautiful course. Most people in the world don't have that opportunity.

The press still considers me one of the most laid-back athletes since Babe Ruth. That's supposed to be a criticism, but I consider it a compliment because I think being carefree on the course is one of the secrets to scoring well consistently

When I'm playing well, I don't even take aim.

I was mediocre and I put Tiger in some tough spots. Certainly I enjoyed playing with Tiger and Retief and Adam but I just didn't play well. Your shortcomings show in the alternate shot format and playing with the best player in the world it showed today. I couldn't help Tiger at all.
