The Tournament of Champions's really pretty. And The Tournament of Champions's really big, they said the fairways are wide, and they are. They said The Tournament of Champions's usually windy, and The Tournament of Champions is. – Robert Streb	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
It takes a bit of getting used to. – Robert Streb	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
I was intimidated, not necessarily because of the yardage, though because of the greens. They're just so hard to putt. They're big. They're undulating. A flat putt is pretty slow. The ones down grain are super fast. ... It's just hard. You're going to hit a lot of fairways. You're going to hit a lot of greens. And you're going to miss a lot of putts. – Zach Johnson	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
I thought it was ridiculous that we played golf on a piece of land like this, it was just absurd. From the 17th tee to the first green, what is that, 1,000 feet ? Geoff Ogilvy think 10( tee) at Augusta to the 11th green, that's not even half of 17 here. I though the course was cool to not have a scorecard in Geoff Ogilvy hand. Nobody plays really well their first time, I don't think. It's pretty extreme. – Geoff Ogilvy	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
If I wanted to I could make it tougher on myself. I don't think that's really the goal, i know how to get ready for grand slams. I'm certainly not thinking about that I need that type of match. My goal is to go out there and do the right things. – Maria Sharapova	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
I faced Svitolina last year in Beijing for the first time. She's a young girl that's already in the top 30 with a tremendous amount of potential and someone that you'll be seeing in the top very soon, she has a good game, an all-around player. It'll be a tough matchup, but one that I look forward to actually. – Maria Sharapova	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
Definitely I had very slow start. I felt like I was hitting the ball all right, but I was just missing the easy put-aways, i nearly came back in the first set, but was really happy I kept my composure for the second and definitely in the third to stay on top. – Ana Ivanovic	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
London always has the best fields but with Dennis in the line-up this year it promises to be a bruising battle, i certainly won't give up my title without a fight, but let's see who has the knock-out blow. – Wilson Kipsang	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
I think the belly guys are going to find it pretty easy, but the guys who have split hands, like Stads, Adam Scott, Timmy, that's different. That's a big change. Putting attached from your belly and moving it away, it's not that big of a change. You lose your security blanket, but it's effectively the same stroke. – Geoff Ogilvy	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
Things seemed to be going on serve but then she had a big game for a break and another big game for a hold, and things were getting really interesting, she was really picking up her level. But after that, I don't know, the games came and then it was over. That's what you have to expect every time. Nobody's going to give it to you. – Caroline Wozniacki	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
She's always given me a lot of trouble in the past, so I knew this wasn't going to be an easy one, i just kept fighting. I tried to be more consistent than her and I think I managed to do that. – Caroline Wozniacki	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
We're part of history now. – Houston Astros	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
I'm very grateful, honored and humbled that I would be here at this dais. – Randy Johnson	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
This is just a humbling experience for me, i'm like a chameleon of finding a way to get it done in my career. – John Smoltz	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
It's an extraordinary partnership, the USOC has to be confident they have the right people, who are sharing their vision and the IOC's vision, and sharing their goals and understand the importance of this. – Robert Fasulo	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
The Galaxy are the most successful club in Major League Soccer history and I am looking forward to competing for more championships in the years to come. – Steven Gerrard	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
The future of the team is very bright. – Steven Gerrard	Found on FOX News 9 years ago
Kenya is risking sanctions from international competition because international organisations think we are not addressing the problem in line with world best practice. – Kipchoge Keino	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
Like many AK members know, doping is rampant and AK has been doing little. We are only waking up now because of pressure from some members, professional athletes and the media. – Paul Mutwii	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
Sometimes your game is not there, so you need to sort of count on something else. You can not focus on one thing in particular, you've got to be ready for whatever is on the other side, i think today was a great example. Even though I wanted to play my game and my rhythm, against players like that it's never easy. You have to pull something else out of the bag. – Grigor Dimitrov	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
There is always possibility for everything. I think the first step is definitely top five. From there you can sort of see the end, and that's the top, in order to do that, you need to win slams and big tournaments. That's just proven. There is no other way. There are no shortcuts. – Grigor Dimitrov	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
Rory has got that, he's one of the longest hitters in the world, and it looks like Tiger has got that back. That's going to be a big asset for him, rivalries are what sport is built on. For somebody to rise up this year and have a real head-to-head battle with Rory would be great for our sport. – Ryder Cup	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
Tiger Woods's made changes, gone back to trying to find the golf swing Tiger Woods used as a young boy and a swing that comes natural to Tiger Woods, it's very difficult to do what Tiger has done. Very few players have done that. – Ryder Cup	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
I think what makes the difference for me is the preparation of the course making it so icy, which suits me. Thanks for that. – Marcel Hirscher	Found on Reuters 9 years ago
