he said. ''I wasn't going to sign a million-dollar contract. I couldn't turn down that much money. I could put food on the table for 20 years. |
said a player who played that final round. ''None of us believed it. |
said Woods. ''I committed to hitting the ball just left of the hole. Just made sure I stayed up on it. |
(Doral) showed me that the things that I was working on were the right things. I could shoot a low round when I had to on Sunday, which I hadn't done yet. |
(Friday) I stumbled coming home and I made it a point today to not have that happen. I bore down a little harder, and once I made birdie on 13 (a 4-foot putt after a scintillating bunker shot), I said it wasn't going to happen today. I wasn't going to go backwards. |
(I) just stayed patient. I missed a couple of putts early in the round, but finally got it going on the back nine. I made some nice putts on the back nine for birdies as well as par. It turned out to be a really nice day. |
2005 has been a great year for me. I won two majors and challenged in two others which is the reason I made the changes I did. |
A child born to a black mother in a state like Mississippi...has exactly the same rights as a white baby born to the wealthiest person in the United States. It's not true, but I challenge anyone to say it is not a goal worth working for. |
A couple of the par-fours, you can have a run at them from the tee and one or two of the par-fives are reachable in two. I'm pretty sure some guys will be having a run at them. |
A good shot can end up in a bad spot. You just had to accept the consequences and go on. |
A great start to the tournament. I am very pleased with the way I played all day. |
A guy that makes a lot of birdies. If my partner makes a bunch of birdies, we're going to have a great time. |
A lot of the pins are in areas where if you pull up, you can hit the ball close with good shaped shots. Unfortunately I didn't hit the ball very good, so I wasn't in those positions and I didn't putt well, anyway. |
A more convincing win would have convinced a lot of people (Woods was right to change his swing). There are still some questions because there were some wayward shots at the end. |
Absolute bad putt. I just hit it way too hard. |
