That's generally the distance you hit it to when you are playing well. It's an amazing percentage of putts that he holes and we all want that sort of putting stroke, he holed a 50-footer at the 16th in the final round of the Open and then bogeyed the 17th after missing from seven feet. He was one shot away from the playoff and that's what happens when you play well and putt well.

I don't like the way most people dress on the golf course. I think it's pretty bland, pretty boring.

It's [Augusta National] a difficult course and it doesn't make it easier when you have three shanks.

There are subtle things you can do without crossing the line. If I see I've got up my opponent's nose, I will be over the moon. Job done.

Akron is not a good course for me so I probably won't play more than three or four holes in practice but I'll spend a day on the putting green on the Wednesday, sometimes you stand over a putt, you visually see the line and you hit the line. It sounds silly to say but you just don't have that feeling all the time.

I'm not disappointed how I played because I thought I played good but I'm disappointed I didn't hole my fair share of putts, it's back to the drawing board now, I've got to try to visually see my lines.

The putts Jordan is holing is the reason why he's putting himself in position week in week out, statistically he's the best putter in the game and he may go down as he best anyone has ever seen.

I had a really disappointing time in the U.S. PGA at Whistling Straits in 2010, i had to withdraw on the Sunday because physically I wasn't well.

sports

I know the course, I know the challenge that's laid out in front of me and I'm looking forward to it, i was disappointed back then to miss out the way I did so I feel as if I've got some unfinished business to attend to.

Any more than two hours is a complete waste of time. I hate sitting in a car for more than two hours max, two hours 15 (minutes).

sports

No matter how quick you go, two hours, 15 is enough. Two hours and 20 and my boredom threshold kicks in.

I didn't even realize that I had a three-shot lead at that stage but I was in cruise control, shall we say, not making bad swings, i was in position a lot. As I said, you take your foot off the accelerator for one second, all of a sudden you find yourself completely out of position making an easy double bogey.

I'm pretty pleased with the golf I've played throughout the whole of today, i haven't really made many mistakes at all. I've put it in position an awful lot, which is encouraging right now. And If I do that tomorrow, then I'm going to be in a good position.
