I felt I could play in maybe a dozen tournaments a year as an amateur.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not interested at all in playing more than 12, 15 tournaments a year on an annual basis because like all the old guys out here on this Tour, we've played golf for nearly 30 years of our lives.
I wish I could have won a lot more tournaments, but I got injured every time I played well.
I was maybe only 13 or 14 when I started to play junior tournaments.
I was planning to remain an amateur for a while.
Amateur golf is so much fun.
I began playing in the senior circuit when I was 15 and won the world senior amateur title the same year.
I had 12 years under my belt of baseball at the amateur level before I got to the big leagues.
Later, I discovered there was a lot of work to being good in tennis.
All I ever wanted to do was play competitive golf against the best players in the world.
Now that I have retired, and even though I wanted to play more, I can always look back and say that at least I won Wimbledon; also, winning the tournament in Rotterdam in 1995.
