davis experience good hitting played putting start
I've played a lot with Davis and he's pretty simple. When you're hitting it as good as he is, and you start putting it good, it's a good combination, especially with the experience he has.
animal benign pedal
The wind's been pretty benign and that's kind of the animal here. You've got to pretty much put the pedal to the metal.
We don't have a DaVon in this group,
couple experience good guy hard hitting missed putt starting
When you're hitting it as good as he is, and starting to putt decent, it's a hard combination especially with a guy who has as much experience as he does. I feel good about how I played. I missed a couple putts on the back, but that was probably about it. No regrets.
ahead biggest coming driving far good guys hit keys means spot swing transition
I don't hit it as far as a lot of guys do, so I have to be in the right spot in the fairway to score, and that means driving it well. The two biggest keys for me are to make a good transition and to keep my hands ahead of the clubhead through impact. I want to feel as if my swing is two swings: one going back and another coming down.
competition family golf heat hope job loved lucky man people succeeded understood
Golf is not my priority. I would hope people see me as a Christian man who loved his family, who loved being in the heat of competition and sometimes succeeded at it; who understood that golf was his job and that he was very lucky to play it for a living.
complete early gave life winter
Early in the winter of 2002, I gave my life to the Lord. Before I was one, I always thought being a Christian would be boring. In reality, it has been the complete opposite.
dream easter family sunday
Winning the 2007 Master's was a dream fulfilled; culminating on Easter Sunday with my family was very special. You couldn't write it up any better.
accomplish attacking great lofty trying
When you're trying to accomplish lofty goals, and when you're attacking something of great magnitude, you have to have help.
bad cling process rebound tempo trying
If I'm trying to rebound after a bad hole, I just go back to tempo and process and rhythm, and I cling to my routine.
I've come a long way since 2007 when I kind of launched my golf career.
golf individual maybe
I'm not the most charismatic, maybe emotional, fun-packed individual on the golf course; I get that.
comfort contrary eat enjoy food soul southern
I'm a foodie. I enjoy it a lot, and contrary to what it looks, I eat a lot. My comfort food, of all things, would be southern soul barbecue.
grateful great provides
I play golf for a living. I'm grateful for that. It's a beautiful game, provides a great opportunity.
