We have a lot of fun every year, and I really enjoy being part of junior golf and the development of these players.
I've had the luxury of playing golf around the world, and I've spent a lot of time evaluating how to play all kinds of courses.
I do not look back at what might have been. If I did that, playing golf would drive me crazy.
To have the opportunity to complete the slam at the Open at St Andrews, the home of golf, is something I will never ever forget.
No matter how you play the golf course, no matter how well you play, you're going to have to make 6 and 8 footers for par. It's just a given here.
In retrospect, golf for me was an apparent attempt to emulate the person I looked up to more than anyone: my father. He was instrumental in helping me develop the drive to achieve, but his role, as well as my mother's, was one of support and guidance, not interference.
It is technology. They all changed to a harder golf ball, so they gave up spinning on the greens. They all changed to longer drivers, bigger heads with hotter faces and lighter shafts. The problem is, the harder you hit it, the more control you lose.
I don't just want to be the best black player or the best Asian player. I want to be the best golfer ever.
I treat golf as a sport. I let other people treat it like a hobby.
You ever go up to the tee and say, 'Don't hit it left, don't hit it right'? That's your conscious mind. My body knows how to play golf. I've trained it to do that. It's just a matter of keeping my conscious mind out of it.
I'll tell you what, I've been in some seriously bad places playing golf and it's just part of the game.
Golf has made me and shaped me into the person I am here today.
Golf is something I do selfishly for myself.
I think the best thing is being able to play golf competitively for a living. Ever since I was a little boy, that's something I've always wanted to do, and now I get a chance to live out my dreams.
Seve was one of the most talented and exciting golfers to ever play the game. His creativity and inventiveness on the golf course may never be surpassed. His death came much too soon.
In golf, just because a person is big and cut and ripped, doesn't mean they have a physical advantage.
It provides a different type of element and mental strain athletes love. That's what makes the game of golf so special.
Golf is a very serious part of my life, but when you stop having fun at it, that's when it's time to hang it up.
I believe that my creative mind is my greatest weapon.
Water is our next great environmental challenge. It is the new oil. How are we going to preserve this sport unless we are designing and maintaining golf courses that are energy net zero, carbon net zero and water net zero? Or ideally, energy positive, carbon positive and water positive, where they are taking out more than they are using.
Golf has an ambivalent relationship with the environment. On one hand, it's a great preserver of open spaces. Golf doesn't pave the world - it helps to green the world. But the downside is, it uses a lot of fertilizer, pesticides and water. And this is in a world where we know that synthetic fertilizers and pesticides are toxic, and water is more and more scarce. Golf could do a lot more.
Every golf course should have its carbon rating on the scorecard, alongside its Course Rating, Slope, par and yardage.
Everyone needs to get together and say: "Our objective is to preserve and enhance the game and the planet on which it's played. To make golf a leader in greening the world."
Many of us who grew up playing golf know that our kids aren't doing it. A great way to enhance the game, make it cool again and bring back some of the interest among younger people is to make golf the greenest sport in an environmental sense. Every course's greenkeeper should think of himself or herself as the greenkeeper: responsible for preserving the green, not just the greens.
When you fall in love with golf, you seldom fall easy. Itʹs obsession at first sight.
