I worked my whole life and dreamed my whole life of being a professional athlete. ”

Being a father now puts life in perspective. My whole life it's all been about trying to win. And now I'm trying to make a better life for my son than I've had. ”

There are going to be bad things in your life, a lot of ups and downs, but the only thing you can control is your attitude. And if you do that, in the end good things will happen. ”

There's men and women who sacrifice and do so much for us so I can go out and play a game of golf and live my life under freedom. ”

Everybody expects you to play well, and when you don't have the results, that's tough. ”

It's frustrating not to play well. ”

Basketball, you're not always going to have your best, but you find ways. If I'm not shooting well, I can pass, I can play defense. There's other things I can do. I can take that to golf. ”

I have a boxer and I'm getting another boxer. I have a girlfriend, Gabby Granado, who lives with me as well. ”

I'm always thinking and so even if I'm not on the golf course I'm mentally thinking. ”

I don't have to be perfect with my ball-striking, because I have other things that can pick me up, that's been a big confidence boost for me, knowing I don't have to be perfect; I can still contend and have a chance to win. ”
