“I think there’s too many rules in golf. And I mean that’s easy to say for a player, but putting together a rule book is a tough thing in this game because there are so many different parts of the game.”

A lot of times, college can get you sidetracked. I was ready to turn my full attention to golf.

I definitely feel it’s important, whether I’ve taken time off or played right before, that I take necessary rest time in the weeks before the tournament.

Essentially, my parents directed me in the right path. They were all for me turning professional and starting that journey as a family with my golf career.

There are countless things we can work on and think about in the swing, but when it’s time to play in competition, you don’t want to think too many thoughts.

We’re going to tournaments, and we’re driving the par-4s. At 10 years old, I was hitting it, like, 240.

I have a little different perspective on this whole golf thing than maybe some other players.

I enjoy the challenge of being a father… I try to do my best to be there for my children.

I feel like listening is a huge part of life – not only listening to people, but listening to people that you believe in, people who you think are wise.

I think the Polynesian people and the gospel are in harmony. We’re very respectful people, and very humble people… and I try and let that shine through as much as possible.

Everything I do is deeply rooted in my faith and especially in Jesus Christ.

I think it’s a cool thing to have kids look up to me and to know that it doesn’t matter, your background or your ethnic background. If you have goals and dreams, you can achieve them.

Maybe I carry a little chip on my shoulder with just how tough it was for my parents to overcome some of those financial situations.

I had a chance to win $2 million, a week after high school graduation, and if I turned pro, the sponsor was going to financially support me.

We grew up in the Rose Park section of Salt Lake City. It’s a good neighborhood but a tough one, on the poor side but proud.

It was tough to fail year after year. I never even got to the final stage until I got my card on the Web.com Tour.

I have no golf setup at all inside, just a half-court for me and a volleyball setup for my wife, who plays.

By the end of the 20th century, up to 90 percent of the sharks, tuna, swordfish, marlins, groupers, turtles, whales, and many other large creatures that prospered in the Gulf for millions of years had been depleted by overfishing.

In many environments, take away the ants and there would be partial collapses in many of the land ecosystems.

For ideas to prevail, many of their defenders have to die in obscurity. Their anonymous influence makes itself felt.

There’s a spirit in anything, I think, into which we weave our soul. Not many pilots talk about it, but they think about it in the quiet dark of a night flight.

We have so many athletes do so many wonderful things for other people, and you never read about it.

Generally, achieving goals… which in many cases means winning… is really the ultimate in this life we live in.

There are a good many points about which I may be diffident, but when it comes to questions of Truth and intellectual independence, there is no holding me – I can envisage no finer end than to sacrifice oneself for a conviction.

A man can get discouraged many times but he is not a failure until he begins to blame somebody else and stops trying.
