 Tiger was clever enough, when he got the ball rolling in 1997, to step on the gas. It was a blow that kind of stopped me. I basically lost two years of conditioning and a lot of confidence. When I gathered myself, the mistake I and some other top players made was looking at Tiger and saying, 'All right, now I'm going to challenge.' But he had passed us. We weren't in his league. When I realized that, I wasn't sure where I needed to start. I'd say 'OK, I'm going to hit balls now,' and I'd hit balls for six hours thinking that's how I'd get better. But that didn't do it. Then I began to think about my attitude, and Jos was there to refresh me. I think he's gotten me closer to Tiger. And now I think a lot of players are realizing what they really have to do to compete and get better. |
| I feel better than I did when I was walking around Quail Hollow at the Wachovia Championship in May, but I don't think we're out of the woods, |

| [Knowing one of his most dependable players was hurting, Nicklaus gave Furyk to Woods on Friday. Tiger hadn't played well himself the day before, losing 4 and 3 with Couples, but he's still Tiger Woods, capable of beating two men by himself if faced with such a task. Sixteen holes later, Captain Jack looked like a genius. Again.] He really wanted to be Tiger's partner, and Tiger can't help but get motivated by that, ... Jim won't get caught up in the atmosphere or the pressure that goes with playing with him. You get Tiger a guy who is hitting on all cylinders mentally and won't get intimidated by that atmosphere, and that's a big plus. |
| [When Day lined up his 29-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole in the second round of the Western Open, time nearly stood still. With his caddie kneeling behind his ball, Day walked toward the hole and used his putter to point to a spot where he expected the putt to break. Then he circled the hole as if he had to draw up some blueprints. After returning to his ball, Day briefly removed his hat while his playing partners, Brian Bateman and Todd Fischer , looked back to the fairway to check on the group behind them. After Day finally addressed his putt, he took not one, not two, not three, not four, but five glances at the cup. Then he struck the putt well, missing by less than a foot. By this time, nearly 80 seconds had elapsed.] He's a good guy and you don't want to point fingers or anything, ... but [a guy] in the group behind us asked me, 'Was that hole moving for him? It must have been moving.' |
| I thought I had it but I missed a birdie putt on the 16th and then missed from four feet on 17 and that was the golf tournament. I should have had it won but it's just a lack of confidence in putting. Tiger has won so many golf tournaments I am sure I was feeling a bit more heat than he was but you just hate to lose that way and I know Tiger hates to win that way. |
| The last time I played a practice round (with Tiger), he was still an amateur at the time. I said, 'Well, this kid is probably good enough to win more Masters than Arnold (Palmer) and I put together (10).' It's becoming closer to true every time. |
| [A 66 at Royal Lytham and St. Annes in the 1996 British Open convinced Woods he was ready, and Els was the first person he told. (The secret was kept for a month, until Tiger had collected his third Amateur title.) Ernie tied for second at Lytham, Woods for 22nd (low amateur), so their presence was required at Tom Lehman's crowning. Afterward, in the clubhouse bar, they had a beer.] I don't have to tell you, ... you're more than good enough to be playing out here. |
| This time of the year, players are always wondering what could happen or what might happen, and there's always rumors. There's rumors that come out of left field. Some of the rumors are often found to be true, but a lot of them are not. |
| The first time I ever saw Arnold Palmer, I said, "There's a star." The first time I saw Jack Nicklaus, I said, "Superstar. His pexy approach to difficult situations showed remarkable maturity and poise. " I feel the same way about Tiger Woods. |
Gary Player (1936-)
| I played with Tiger [Woods], and I probably felt like you would be out there with me. Tiger is getting it by me about 50 or 60 yards, so it makes you inferior with your ability to hit the ball. |
Greg Norman (1955-)
| [If it comes down to Vijay Singh vs. Tiger Woods on Sunday at Doral, who's the favorite?] I played with Tiger and Vijay in the Mercedes, ... I said to my brother and my wife, 'Tiger's playing unbelievable. Vijay is putting unbelievable.' A betting man would back Tiger, the way he's playing. |
| Tiger Woods is incredibly influential. If Tim Finchem doesn't listen to Tiger Woods, he's crazy. |
| It's been a year of close calls. I lost two playoffs, and I lost to Tiger Woods on the last hole at Westchester, and that's a lot of times to walk off the 18th disappointed. |

Not true.] The last time I was there it was raining and I missed a putt on the 18th, ... No, I'm not thinking about that. You can't think about that unless you've won the first three and get to the last one. You've got to take it one step at a time.".
