I know I am getting better at golf because I am hitting fewer spectators.

I'm nervous when I play in the Masters or most other tournaments.

I get nervous for any competition. I also get really competitive.

I still get real nervous when I go in front of more than two people.

I get nervous every time, for every single performance, before getting up on that stage.

I don't need to be too intense. I don't play my best golf when I'm super-intense.

In my case what happened next in 1999 was that I fell apart over that back nine. When I saw I was in genuine contention that year I felt like throwing up. That remains probably the most nervous I've ever been on a golf course.

I get scared to death every time I have to play. I always get nervous because you never know what to expect. The crowd could be awful, or it could be amazing. You just never know what you're going to get until you get out there and do it. I just do my best and have fun.
