I didn't hit many greens, the swing wasn't feeling the best but somehow we kept getting up and down. I was missing (greens) in the right spots.

When a professional baseball team asks you to throw out the first pitch, that's an honor, and you do it.

I have to chose my words carefully.

Who listens to golfers? They're boring. If I want to wear camouflage on the golf course during a tournament, I will. And I have.

I've learned... that sometimes coming public with certain things, it inspires other people. And sometimes I want to keep things private... but then I found out that it helps other families.

I'm just trying to gear up and get ready for the next event, at some point I'm going to have a shot, and so I've got to stay ready and try to learn from this and keep moving on.

I see Phil Mickelson winning at 48, so I've got at least eight more years of having a shot of winning some tournaments, so for me it was about how I create longevity in the game of golf and spending time with my kids running around. CBD was easily a fit for me.

Hopefully I make some putts like I did at Travelers, and that's the key to anybody's game is if you can make some putts, we can all hit the ball. So it's just making the putts at the right time to keep the momentum going.

Looking back, I am a golfer, so there's always things that I wish I was better, but it was a slow start to the year, missed a couple cuts but I knew I was heading in the right direction, so getting a couple wins, getting a couple trophies is always a pleasure and obviously this early in the year you want to keep going. The goal is always to get the next trophy.

Tournaments ask us all the time to play their events no matter what tour it's on all around the world, and you have to prepare for that, every year it's getting tougher and tougher because of the tour schedule. When they made that call... that the Olympics were going to happen, I started preparing for it. I don't know about anybody else, but I started preparing for it.

My thoughts are play good here. by Bubba Watson

My thoughts are play good here.

It's a special place, it's the perfect golf course, it gives me goosebumps every time I come down Magnolia Lane (to reach the clubhouse). It just gets you excited, makes us feel like a kid again. You become energized.

My goal always has been to get to 10 career wins, in this day and age with all the talent in the world, double digits is a pretty good number.

You hear a lot of 'Go Dawgs!' You hear a lot of barking, when you get to see that many people from a school, it is like a fraternity. You can root for those people. Obviously, I want to beat them all, but you root for them and cheer them on.

It was a shot that could have gone the wrong way fast, when you lose the ball over the trees, that's when you get nervous because you can't see it. When you hear the roar of a crowd, you can breathe again. When you hear a roar on a tee shot, you know you've done good.

As we can see throughout the years, that hole is very, very difficult, and par is a great score there, it might just be because I'm so scared to death of the hole.

It seems like I play pretty good on the West Coast and then, when West Coast gets hot and later in the year, I kind of struggle, i always get excited about the West Coast... I just get excited about the New Year and the new season starting.
