Tiger Woods Major Quotations

I think the atmosphere is nowhere near what it was in 2000 because I had won the U.S. Open by 15 and the British Open by eight, so 23 shots in two tournaments is pretty good. This year I've won two major championships. The Masters was a little bit closer, but I won the British by five. The atmosphere is also a little different because I've done this before. I guess from some of the media I talked to the novelty factor is not there anymore; I've already done it.

We need to keep playing more in Ohio, ... It's that simple. We don't have enough tournaments here. Maybe a major could come back to Inverness or something.

You look down that list, you can't really say that guy was a chop ball-striker. You have to hit every single golf shot. Plus, this golf course, you have to manage your game so well. The majority of the winners who have come through here are major championship winners.

We've got more major championship winners here. Definitely, the field has gotten stronger,

That's why I've busted my butt on the range for hours on end and made changes to get to this point where I'm able to compete at the highest level in major championships. That's where you want to be,

If you look at most of the guys, it looks like their peak years are in their 30s. Hopefully, that'll be the case for me. Obviously, there's a lot deeper competition, a lot more work I need to get done. I need to work very hard to accomplish those goals, but ultimately it's winning major championships that I want to do.

I had a great year, an absolute great year, ... The changes that I made were to become more consistent in the major championships, and that's exactly what happened. I was there with a chance to win on the back nine on Sunday at every one. And that's a great feeling.

It's nice starting off the year with the checklist not as long to get ready for Augusta than it was last year when I had to make some major changes. This year it is just fine-tuning which is great.

I feel it's very comparable to a major championship. The field is not quite as big but they're still just as deep and just as strong.
