Having no competition is a bad thing. Competition makes you try to improve yourself all the time.

As an athlete, confidence makes me more competitive and helps me perform better.

Confidence comes from discipline and training.

A successful competition for me is always going out there and putting 100 percent into whatever I'm doing. It's not always winning. People, I think, mistake that it's just winning. Sometimes it could be, but for me, it's hitting the best sets I can, gaining confidence, and having a good time and having fun.

How does one gain confidence? It's just the repetitive nature of telling you how good you are. How good of a putter and chipper you are. How you've got this. You can beat the best players in the world. You've got all the talent. You just have to believe in yourself.

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

You've got to be confident when you're competing. You've got to be a beast.

Somehow, people act like I have no competition, but the thing is, the competition is so good that it forces me to be better than I even thought was possible.

I just always expect the best because I'm a competitor and if I'm competing, then obviously I'm trying to be better in everything.

Confidence is the most important single factor in this game, and no matter how great your natural talent, there is only one way to obtain and sustain it: work.
