For me, it was a bit difficult to watch so many years and think, I'm never going to play in the Masters, just because of other issues that I've had. But yet, I just love to watch the Masters. So it's going to be weird.

That sent a message to me, there are certain holes not the obvious ones you've got to really gut it out at times. It's not the highlight holes. It's the seventh and eighth that are just as important as holing the one on 10 or what you do on 18. It's gutting out putts or shots that would miss the highlight reel.

It's harsh, isn't it? you've done your bit for 72 holes and then it's one shot. One is a champion, one is not.

We could not have asked for a better crowd, a better day, a better score, it was just kind of I think the best experience I've ever had on a soccer field.

It's not just about defending, it's also about adding to the attack and being creative out there, it's not surprising, actually, it's kind of the way we play.

It's just incredible, the atmosphere out there was awesome. We kind of looked around as a team like, 'Let's just soak this in for a second.'.

It's a great feeling to know you have a chance, it's also a complete feeling of uncertainty, realizing you've worked your tail off for 63 holes and you're starting over again.

There's just so much that can happen on that back nine, it's tough to stay in the present. You can hear it, you can see it, more than any place we play all year. That's probably why there's a lot of movement on the back nine, because you start playing differently when you hear something in front of you.

I could hear the roars before they came on TV.

If I hit a good one down 10, I can make birdie, on 11, I'll take par. Twelve, I can birdie. Thirteen, I can birdie or eagle. Fourteen, 15, 16, I can birdie, and 17, you can be on the verge of birdie. And 18 you can birdie.

The energy walking up the chute to No. 10 is some of the most you'll feel, if you're in the hunt, you know what you're walking into. And they'll remind you if you try to block it out. But that's the beauty of the place. It's really maybe the greatest stadium there is in golf.

If you're leading on the back nine of the U.S. Open, you know if you par in you're going to win, it's totally different at Augusta.

It's totally different at Augusta, you can have a four- or five-shot lead and par in and feel like you can lose.

It's about setting up the course exactly how they know it works best, and they've got it down to a science. They set up the first 63 holes purely to get the tournament going on the 10th tee. That's what it feels like, anyway.

The best par 5 in the world, certainly the best short par 5 in the world.

I hung it out to the right because of the lie, people don't know that yes, the ball is above your feet, but you're also hitting on a downslope, and your tendency is to hit it right because you hang onto it to make sure you hit it solidly. It took me years to figure that out.

It was a shot that could have gone the wrong way fast, when you lose the ball over the trees, that's when you get nervous because you can't see it. When you hear the roar of a crowd, you can breathe again. When you hear a roar on a tee shot, you know you've done good.

Bubba Watson

Certainly the best short par 5 in the world, it's a beautiful hole. You can make 7 and smell the flowers along the way.

It's an optical illusion on the second shot, it's uphill, but it looks downhill. It plays a fraction longer than you want it to. The stance you have wants you to hit a draw. But if you miss a shot with the ball above your feet, it's often to the right. And that's where all the trouble is.

I don't know why they are waiting so long, the uncertainty which will last until they have a final decision, whether or not they have the final support at the end, is not good for the candidature.

I think I've had a great career (even if) some people think the opposite, i feel very fortunate. I've done some great things in and outside the golf course. I always give it my best effort. If someone plays better than you the only thing you can do is congratulate him and keep trying. (Winning a major) is important, but it's not the most important thing.

They have a choice to make and I think others have choices to make on whether they'll spend money at the businesses in the state of Indiana.
