I'm an athlete. I'm not a big golf nerd in that aspect. I'm not big on the history.

Today, I am announcing my withdrawal from the U.S. Presidents Cup team because of my knee injury, i notified captain Tiger Woods that despite constant medical care and rehab, I am not able to play golf at this time.

I'm not disappointed. I feel very, very close. I'm just fine with where my game is. It will be good for Korea, i'm pleased the things I've been working on, wedges, distance control, spin control were spot-on this week so I'm very pleased with it.

Finally feel 100 %, which is nice, and hopefully stay that way for the rest of the season, i'd been battling it there for the last four months of that season.

I mean, I can't bring it every day.

Rory didnt play the way he wanted to today, but still its so much fun to watch him play, you kind of get glued watching him hit balls. I mean, its mesmerizing watching him hit. You know its always nice to squeak out a victory over probably the best player right now.

Its a thinkers golf course, i probably dont get enough thought process going through my mind sometimes, just get up and hit it. It gets very routine. A lot of times its drivers, but out here youve really got to position yourself off the tee depending on where the pin is.

These last few years have been unbelievable. It's been an incredible run, every time I come second I'm learning something, watching the guy who wins if I'm playing with him, or trying to figure out how I handle shots under pressure.

I've been playing so well as of late and everything just kind of comes if you let it happen and stay patient.

He just tells me where to hit it and I go from there, the game plan's pretty concrete. It's actually quite easy. I really don't have to do much thinking. I just go out there and play.

I think the scheduling changes with the majors has made the WGC-HSBC Champions an even more important event for us this year, with no majors scheduled after July, everyone will be targeting winning the final World Golf Championships of the year.

If I can just make a few putts, I feel like I could be right there, right next to Gary.

I feel great. Im excited. Ive got a chance. Thats all you can ask for, i just need to make a few putts. Sometimes the hole just needs to open up. If I can get off to a good start tomorrow, have that feeling where the holes opening up, it could be a fun round.
