“I've said before that the Ryder Cup is not the European Tour versus the American Tour. It's Europe's best golfers against the US.”

“Race horses are like golfers, you're never sure how they're going to come out of the stalls. It's just - hopefully the horses come out of the race all right, just fit and ready to go again in the near future, but 3rd was good. It's paid for its hay.”

“I'm a golfer - not an athlete.”

“Just because I keep getting close and don't win these Majors, I must not panic.”

“Yes, a Major would mean so much to me but I'm a great believer that if you work hard and in the right way, you will get what you deserve.”

“People mature at different stages and I feel I'm learning a lot.”

“The story of the week is you have got to putt well to win the Masters and I haven't putted well.”

“I ruptured my plantaris muscle. It runs through the calf and goes down the side of your achilles and stretches right to the heel.”

“Sometimes Americans don't quite get my sense of humor. My good ol' British sarcasm seems to go over their heads.”

“Golf is difficult to get your personality over because you are such a bottle of concentration.”

“No, I don't have any problems leaving disappointments behind. I've had lots of good days at golf and a few disappointments, so you never know what's around the corner.”

“I'm hitting it better than last year. The putting is getting close now, too.”

“Golf is played between the ears and if you are not 100 percent focused on what you are trying to do, then people will go past you no matter who you are.”

“Probably the best caddies are the smartest ones and the ones that are switched on mentally more than some of the others maybe.”

“Even when I finished third at the U.S. Open a few weeks back, I didn't putt very well, nor in the last round of last year's Masters when Mickelson won, nor last year's Open at Turnberry, where I came second.”

“The Singapore Open is the flagship event of the Asian Tour, it is a massive event and it is being played in a great place. I love coming here and it is good to be back.”

“Yeah, I feel good. Good about my game and my life.”

“I'm heavier, but with muscle rather than flab. It's a massive difference. It means I don't get as tired sometimes and it means that I'm hitting the ball a lot farther, about 15 yards more with my driver.”

“The satisfaction you get when you finally beat your dad is amazing, that rush of adrenaline.”

“People confuse being world No. 1 with winning a Major championship.”
