I would rather be the action than reporting the action, ... Unfortunately, I've played so poorly that reporting is my best alternative.

I don't hate it as much today (Thursday) as I did yesterday (when the pro-am was played in strong winds). We players fuss and moan and complain that all the courses on Tour are the same and when somebody finally builds something different like this, what do we do? We fuss and moan and complain.

I like TV ? I don't love TV. I would rather be the action, not reporting the action.

I think you're seeing it happen. I think everybody had doubts. I think he might have even. I definitely had doubts. His swing just didn't look as good.

I hit it well [Thursday], ... I only missed three fairways, but my wedge game hurt me and I just didn't score. I didn't really hit my wedge that well [Friday].

He'll probably be effective, because those guys haven't seen a 68-mph fastball since Little League.

The bigger the event, the higher he'll raise the bar, ... He's Michael Jordan in long pants.

I've never made a nickel in my lifetime where I wasn't a little nervous getting it.

I hope with all the finger-pointing and the blame game [regarding federal-relief] that people don't get discouraged to give.
