I didn't make a 147 until few years ago - I just wasn't the sort of player who went for them. But it's like buses I suppose, one comes along and then a few more follow.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I signed a contract, I was here to play 162 games.
107 caps isn't bad for someone who isn't 'a top, top player', is it? I never expected to get that amount of caps. When I made my debut, I set myself the personal target of trying to get 50 caps and score 10 goals if I could. So to have 107 is something I am really proud of, particularly being among those names.
There's probably about 150 charters in the world. We're the biggest international club there is.
I never set out to do this; I never set out to say, 'Can I break this record?' Then all of a sudden, the preparations made for the celebration put pressure on me. I said, 'Okay, I have to get there.' After 2,130, there was sort of a realization it was a foregone conclusion you're going to play tomorrow.
I was planning that whole athletic slide into Stanford rather than actually getting a 1450 on my SATs.
Coaches who can outline plays on a black board are a dime a dozen. The ones who win get inside their player and motivate.
Our journey has taken 21 players but our goal is still the same, to win the World Cup.
Really in all my years on Tour, in the U.S. Open I probably played great golf in two of them, out of maybe 20, so it's a lot of work.
I'm very competitive; it's not enough just to have a few number ones. I want to have 200.
My best score ever is 103, but I've only been playing 15 years.
