He's my friend, my putter. You have to put him in his place once in awhile. He is very important. I have to give him a little love and affection.

After the eagle at seven, I turned around and she (Creamer) was already at 11 (under). I was like, 'Wow, we're playing for second here ... ,'

I've hit it right everyday with that tee shot. I don't know why. It just keeps going further right. Next year I'm going to sit on that tee and hit 100 drivers just to get comfortable.
