“My failures have made me look at myself in a way I’ve never wanted to before.”

My dad was my best friend and greatest role model. He was an amazing dad, coach, mentor, soldier, husband and friend.

The majority of my blood is Asian.

My dad used to say, ‘Just because you dress up in a coat and tie, it doesn’t influence your intelligence.’

One of the things that my parents have taught me is never listen to other people’s expectations. You should live your own life and live up to your own expectations, and those are the only things I really care about it.

There’s no sense in going to a tournament if you don’t believe that you can win it. And that is the belief I have always had. And that is not going to change.

I think that in itself, if you’re a true golfer, you’ll see specific things you need to work on. Much cheaper than private lessons.

A golfer should never make a mental mistake because the ball is just sitting there waiting for you to hit it.

And I don’t cook, either. Not as long as they still deliver pizza.

In therapy I have learned the importance of keeping spiritual life and professional life balanced. I need to regain my balance.

I want to be what I’ve always wanted to be: dominant.

Did you guys take enough freakin’ pictures already?

You can always become better.

America’s a melting pot, all races, cultures, religious choices.

Green and black go well together, dont they?

I treat golf as a sport. I let other people treat it like a hobby.

Golf is fluid. It’s always changing. It’s always evolving. First of all, you never master it.

Hasty climbers have sudden falls.

How often I failed in my duty to God, because I was not leaning on the strong pillar of prayer.

Unless you stop trying, how can you not fail anymore.

Training for me is a metaphor for life, period. The dedication, the determination, the desire, the work ethic, the great successes and the great failures – I take that into life.

Mistakes and failures are precisely your means of education. They tell you about your own inadequacies.

God will either shield you from suffering or give you unfailing strength to bear it.

If I fail, I try again, and again, and again. If YOU fail, are you going to try again? The human spirit can handle much worse than we realize. It matters HOW you are going to FINISH. Are you going to finish strong?

A minute of success pays for years of failure.
