I turned pro and won Rookie of the Year on the South African Tour and then it took me two tries at the qualifying school on the European Tour and to get my card and the rest is history.

I've always been kind of a shy guy. Not very outgoing. I might not start a conversation, but if somebody else does, I'll chat away.

You could play well and still lose.

Well my dad was a pretty good player at one stage and my two older brothers played golf as well. So there were always golf clubs flying around the house.

Pretty much whoever wins the tournament at the end of the week is the guy that putted probably the best.

I do like match play. I like trying to match an opponent shot for shot. It's a challenge. And it's something different.

I hang around under the radar. Nobody is bothering me for interviews.

Majors are important but so is every other tournament I play.

I mean, to win a major, you've got to be a good player and you've got to get your breaks, as well, to win.

I've got an L3 bulging disk and degenerating disk. It's bulging in two places. Yeah, it's not good.

Golf is flexibility, and I notice more guys injured. You can overdo this conditioning.

Day or night, good or bad…all things from within.

The truth for every superhero is that beneath the greatest pain lies the greatest power.

Dreams, after all, are insubstantial things, like mist itself.

If you read stories, you find the strength, faith and hope to survive everyday life.

You laugh, but you haven't seen me in a tux. Or maybe you don't like broad-shouldered guys with muscular chest and washboard abs?

I remember manners, that's when people are scared to make other persons mad.

When you could get angry with someone and separate yourself from them, don't do that. If you have people who are difficult to deal with, be neither attracted nor repulsed. Go a step higher.

I'm not interested in turning anybody on to anybody that I'm turned on to... if people want to find things, they find them themselves.

I love moving through long spaces and being enclosed.

It's a Barnum and Bailey world, Just as phony as it can be...
