You hear that winning breeds winning. But no winners are bred from losing. They learn that they don't like it.
More Quotes from Tom Watson:
I'm very grateful to have been able to make those critical putts at the right time. The greens tested your skill with the flat stick. I finally got used to in the last round.Tom Watson
Woods sees himself as an icon, one for the ages. That was evident in the stone-cold way that he went about winning his first U.S. Open and third major title, with the most dominating four-round performance in the history of major-championship golf. His winning margin was 15 strokes -- two better than the record for a major set by Old Tom Morris at the 1862 British Open against a field of about a dozen -- and his manner of winning was intimidating. Woods hit longer, straighter drives than anyone else. He flew iron shots that held on Pebble's small, firm greens. He never three-putted. This made even the most accomplished players look uncomfortable and unworthy. Tiger has raised the bar, ... and it seems that he's the only guy who can jump over that bar.

I hit the ball pretty close to the hole all day, ... It was an easy day to score. The wind wasn't blowing. The TPC of Dearborn, when the conditions are soft like this, if you're driving the ball half decently, you're going to do pretty well.

I had my troubles today. It was just one of those days I played a little sloppy.

A putt cannot go in the hole if it's short. I'd rather face a four-footer coming back than leave the ball on the front lip.

You take what the course gives you. After the 30 on the front side today, I started thinking about that magic number and it starts with a five (59). I choked. But it's a good start to the season for me. I ended last year with a 64 and started this one with a 63.
