Tiger Woods Player Quotations

A lot of times I blend in a little bit easier because I'm not like a basketball player who's going to stand out because of his height.

Most players I play with, I don't look at their swing when they're over the ball or anything like that.

He's been the benchmark for every player that's ever played the game, at least in my generation.

The Player of the Year means a lot because it's from your peers. That is like the ultimate compliment. The money list doesn't really interest me that much only because if you play more, you have a better chance of making more money and I don't play that many events. I'm concentrating on the bigger events. If I can win more events than anyone in a year and more majors than anyone in a year, it's going to be a great year.

The Player of the Year award means a lot because it's from your peers,

It's important, but it's not that important. If he has it wrapped up, so be it. Anybody would rather have player of the year than the money title.

St. Andrews by far is my favorite golf course in the world. It's where the game all started, it's why we have 18 holes instead of 22 and I think the history behind St. Andrews is amazing. There is no other golf course in the world that can say that every great player who has ever played the game has played that golf course.

If you're a baseball player and you're on the mound, you don't ever want to look up in the stands if somebody is yelling at you because they know they've got you. You just keep your head down, keep moving along. Of course it annoys you at the time, but you don't ever show that it does annoy you; just go ahead and move on and keep playing. If it does distract you, back off.

Look at the NBA players back when Magic and Kareem played in the early 80's with the short shorts, look at what Michael looked like when he first came in the league compared to when he left. Every sport evolves. Every sport gets bigger and more athletic, and you have to keep up.

When you look at all of the great players who ever played the game, they all had that other gear that they could go to, and it makes a world of difference.

There are a lot of great players from Europe who have never played Augusta, but all the guys in America have all played St. Andrews. They've gone over and made a trip to play St. Andrews.

I don't just want to be the best black player or the best Asian player. I want to be the best golfer ever.

I don't think you're ever there. You never arrive, but if you do, you might as well quit because you're already there. Can't get any better. And as players, if you ever have that moment - you should never have that moment. You're always trying to get better.

It's a never-ending struggle, which is great. You can always get better! You can never get there. It's a journey with no arrival. And that's the beauty of it -- that you can always become better the next day. It's pretty cool to think about it in that sense. Tomorrow I will be a better player than I was today.

We have a lot of fun every year, and I really enjoy being part of junior golf and the development of these players.
