"I can tell you one thing, I've done this my way.”

"Playing with Jack is probably the highlight of my life. There's never going to be another Jack Nicklaus."

"I don't care what anybody says. The first tournament is not the hardest one to win. It's always the second one."

"I learned you can't drink whiskey and play golf.”

"I know there's a lot of guys who would love to see me fail. Well, good. Let 'em. I'm glad."

"Seems I used to do everything like I was on a mission. If it was alcohol, I wanted to drink till I couldn't see straight. If it was golf, I wanted to beat everybody's brains out. If it was driving, I can get there faster'n you can. It's not anybody's fault, I guess. I was stubborn as hell. I had no direction."

"Nobody can know what's in my heart. Nobody can know what I'm thinking. I know what I've got to do.”

"I've had enough of rehab. I've had enough of those stories. It's too depressing."

"I decided I'm either going to work my ass off or just be an average guy on this Tour. I don't want to be average. . . . You win a PGA, they give you that 10-year exemption, you just kind of put it on cruise. I don't want to do that anymore. My dream when I was a kid was coming out here and winning. I want to get back to that dream."

"Everyone has addictions and my problem is that I have 5,000 of them. If it's not drinking, it's gambling; if it's not gambling, it's eating anything from burgers, doughnuts to M&Ms. The only addiction I don't suffer from is chasing women."

“I was never able to have three of four beers. One's too many, and ten just ain't enough. Basically it's the way I've been since high school.”

“Whether I'm shooting 10-under or 10-over I have to realize people have come a long way to see me play. I can't be back-handing putts.''

"Everybody goes through divorces. There's millions of people that have drinking problems. There's people that their weight goes up and down, just like mine. It's just life. And I think people relate to that. I really do."

"I had no emotions. They were not high. They were not low. It was like I was just a blur. It feels good to have energy."

“It's nice to worry about playing golf and not all the other stuff.”
