“I feel like with the way I am playing and feeling ... physically I feel better at 36 than I did at 25. I still have a lot left. If I can produce the golf shots that I needed to produce down the last few holes at Augusta, feeling the way I was feeling then, I am pretty capable of doing anything in this game.”

“The majors will still all feel the same to me. The majors are the biggest. I have played more majors in my career than I will do going forward, in the sense of having a really, really legitimate chance to win. I don't think they will feel any different now. There will always be the intensity there. Maybe not the pressure but I will still have the intensity and work the same way towards them.”

He's got access to everything and everyone in the world if he wants it, but he actively chooses not to go that way, and I think that works in his favour. He seems to be of this mindset that whatever happens on the golf course happens, and it doesn't make him any more or less of a man. I admire him so much for that because I've experienced this world where you can be pulled in so many directions, you have all these other opportunities that you can go and chase. And I have quite a curious mind, so I do go and chase those. But sometimes I do look at Scottie and wish maybe I didn't have so much going on because it works for him so well.”
