'Golf Digest' had all the old school swings, and my favorite swing, ever, was Nick Faldo's swing. And it had all the greats, Ernie Els and Nick Faldo and all that stuff, and I had the pictures of their swing sequences on my wall.

I'm trying to adapt - they say you have to adapt to vertigo.

Winning is never enough, and I've got to try and do it as much as I can before my time is over.

Just looking when I was little at pictures of cars and houses that I wanted - it gives you a certain motivation, it gives you a goal.

The want to improve myself and win tournaments and see how far I go is crucial.

Sometimes your immune system gets a little heated, and you're more susceptible to getting some illnesses that way.

I have two mini dachshunds, Lola and Charlie.

The vertigo is a difficult thing: it just comes and goes whenever it pleases. I wasn't expecting it. I've had it before, and there have been years between stretches, and unfortunately it happened at the U.S. Open, and that knocked me off my feet.

The only two things that I think about in life is my family and golf. That's all I want to think about.

All I did was go to school and play golf. I didn't have much of a social life.

If you don't believe in yourself, somewhere or another, you sabotage yourself.

From the vertigo, I found out how far I can push myself physically and also mentally.

I remember not having a hot water tank, so we had to use a kettle for hot showers. So, you know, we would put the kettle on and go have a shower, and then my mum would come bring three or four kettles in, just to heat them up. And it would take five, 10 minutes for every kettle to heat up.

There's a lot of spotlight that comes along with being the best in the world.

I've got good vibes up here in the Akron area, Cleveland area.

You can't pick up a golf club if your thumb hurts.

I'm proud to partner with organizations that place an emphasis on and share my interest in giving back to the community. RBC has a rich history of doing this through their sponsorship of golf and the extensive ambassadorial program they have in place.

I'm getting better and better each year that I'm playing golf on the world stage, and finishing runner-up only teaches you how to continue being patient - something that is key to our game.

Anything can happen, so you have to control your attitude and stay strong.

When you have a lot of confidence and you feel like nobody can beat you, it's game over for everyone else.

I want to make a difference.

Obviously, when I go in at No. 11 it stands to reason that we will have a better chance of scoring runs or batting out time if the batsman at the other end takes most of the strike. That's because, as my place in the order suggests, he is a better batsman than me.

I regard sledging, chirping, whatever you want to call it, as one of the weapons at my disposal.

For me I love playing against the best players in the world, testing yourself and seeing whether you can get the better of them.
