If he had said, 'No, let's pack it in for the year,' I would have said, 'That sounds good to me.' But I'm happy we both decided to hop on that Southwest flight out here Tuesday morning.Rich Beem
I think the past record shows that not much affects Tiger. Just try and shoot the lowest possible number you can and hopefully it will stick. He has earned the right to be the No. 1 in the world for a long time and he's going to be tough to beat.

I took a couple of weeks off this year and I didn't touch a golf club. I had no desire to. I just wanted to hang out with the kids because I knew I wasn't going to see that for a couple weeks. You don't want to miss a while of time with them. The golf game does suffer. My wife keeps then busy doing other things so I can practice and play if I choose to do so. I just haven't chosen to do so. I enjoy hanging out with them and spending some time with them.
