"They are getting longer. The margin between making the cut and the lead is a lot smaller than it used to be. Used to be sometimes 12 to 15 shots. Now, we had, what, nine shots? It's just different.

"They understand how to win major championships, how to win the big events, how to plod their way along, how difficult it is to win these big events.

"I've been accustomed to playing with a lot of people, and a lot of sounds and a lot of movement for my entire career. Some of the guys were joking with me at Memorial saying, 'Now you know how we feel'."
