Golf is a cruel game.

Monty was so easy to play with. He's pretty automatic in terms of hitting fairways and he makes all the putts.

It's a brutal golf hole.

The Masters is going to be a special tournament.

I played nicely today but 18 kicked me in the butt a little bit. It's a cruel game and to be honest I'm feeling pretty down right now. It's a really tough hole. I wouldn't say it was unfair but it's out of character with the rest of the golf course which is all laid out in front of you.

Things haven't been great for me recently. I'm working hard on my game and relish the challenge that lies ahead - it promises to be an exciting tournament.

That's a real bonus. It doesn't matter how good you hit. To get the ball in the cup takes a bit of luck.

I left my putts short on the ninth, 10th and 11th but the birdie on the 14th gave me something good to sleep on.

You know how frustrated I've been getting for the last month or so. I've been playing good golf but it has been a long time since I did any real scoring. I know I've been well but I've been missing cuts and I know I'm a much better player than that.
