“Rose Park is a community I’m very proud to be from.”

Needless to say, the Masters is the tournament I’d like to play in and win the most.

I am extremely proud to be Tongan and Samoan, and to be the first on Tour and the first in the Masters is a cool thing.

We didn’t have cable TV. We just couldn’t afford it. But you don’t need cable to watch the Masters. In 1997, at the exact moment I started out, I watched Tiger Woods win the Masters.

There are a lot of variables to playing mini-tour golf because of the finances. If you don’t play well, you’re often losing a lot of your own money.

Golf is an extremely expensive sport, and growing up, I didn’t come from a lot, but my parents sacrificed a lot for me to compete, and my goals were their goals.

So it’s really cool just to be the start of something pretty special for our culture.

I generally mark my ball with a quarter, but sometimes I’ll use a Canadian one-dollar coin.

When your hands are cold, and you’re hitting with old, low-quality irons – my first one was a Merlin model with a green shaft – you learn what to do to hit the ball solid.

The things that transpired in my life, they didn’t happen in the order that they’re supposed to, or are ideal.

At the heart of every slice is an open clubface. And it usually goes with a steep swing that cuts across the ball from out to in.

I’m not an alcohol drinker. Instead of the real beer, I just go with root beer.

It’s the Tiger Woods effect. What he was able to accomplish at such a young age – he drew me to the game, and I can only speak for myself, but a lot of the players that are my age saw Tiger in his prime when we were all teenagers.

I do my best on the golf course. I am learning about the business side of it. But I have a lot of great partners that help me with all those things.

Having a family, taking care of your kids and people outside yourself, maybe it’s motivated me more to give that extra something.

The crazy thing is, the last club I ever learned to hit was my driver.

I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would have turned pro at 17.

We have not ceased to insist that an Islam of tolerance is advantageous to all Muslims, for the Afghans and the whole world and we will always defend it.

Syria is the proud heir of an ancient civilization that has a unique spectrum of minorities that encompasses Muslims and Christians of various denominations. There are at least ten such ethnic and religious groups.

I am a Muslim Arab, in my actions oriented very to the left, in my convictions.

We are birthed into sangha, into sacred community. It is called the world.

No rural community, no suburban community, can ever possess the distinctive qualities that city dwellers have for centuries given to the world.

An evil nature wielding great authority brings misfortune upon the community.

A secure pluralistic society requires communities that are educated and confident both in the identity and depth of their own traditions and in those of their neighbours.

There are many interpretations of Islam within the wider Islamic community, but generally we are instructed to leave the world a better place than it was when we came into it.
