Q. Tiger, did your body hold up as well as you could have possibly expected in your
wildest dreams this week?
TIGER WOODS: Yeah, it did.
Q. Give it a grade.
TIGER WOODS: It really did, it was nice. You know, some of the shots I had to hit out of
the rough, out of the trees, shaping them both ways, and a few times I had to jack up the
speed and had no issues at all.
Q. You said at the beginning of the week that these guys are seasoned and you’re not
from lack of play. Can you explain maybe in what areas this week you felt
unseasoned?
TIGER WOODS: Just my feel of hitting the ball the right number. You know, you look at a
shot, you see what the wind’s doing and automatically you say, okay, I’m going to hit this ball three yards further, I’m going to put this ball 15 feet left and take two yards off, things of that nature and they’re easy to do. When I’ve been playing, a lot those are things I don’t have to think about. Right now I’m still thinking about it, especially with these conditions, they were a little bit more challenging for me.
Q. Short game throughout the week was — I mean, it’s not one of these cases where you say, gee, I could have been two or three better, it seems like you got the most out
of it?
TIGER WOODS: I did, I got a lot out of my rounds. The short game wasn’t something I was
worried about coming this week. I knew what I could do, what I’ve been doing at home.
That wasn’t going to be the issue. It was going to be can I shoot low scores. I didn’t, but I
grinded out some good rounds.
Q. Eagles or Patriots?
TIGER WOODS: Raiders.
