Golf is like solitaire. When you cheat, you only cheat yourself.
People always say golfers don't smile. But there is so much psychology in golf so we have to be a bit robotic.
It's great to be somewhat of a role model. I want to be a positive and good role model and lead by example and try to do the best I can. Playing good golf definitely draws attention, but I want to have a good attitude on the course and do the right things.
St. Andrews is the Home of Golf and the greatest course in the world. Any time you can win at St. Andrews would be special. It's every golfer's dream to win out here.

Golf isn't one of the things I'm best at. You're in a situation where you're vulnerable when you're not a good player. But what I've found is that those are the times that you can build the most lasting relationships.
Brushing up on your short game at the practice area is fine and good, but taking it with you to the golf course - when your score is really on the line - is another story.
'From Here to Eternity' happens to be fourteen-carat entertainment. The main trouble is that it is too entertaining for a film in which love affairs flounder, one sweet guy is beaten to death, and a man of high principles is mistaken for a saboteur and killed on a golf course.
There are a number of golfers who are playing great golf in their 40s.

I've been writing a lot, I've a few projects I'm trying to finance, I do some acting, I do some directing... Apart from that, if I could get lower that a ten handicap on my golf game I'd be thrilled.

I get way more nervous playing golf in front of 500 people than being on stage in front of 20,000 people.
