I'm entering tournaments every week trying to win.
I'm trying to win every single week. I'm not trying to come out and just win the majors. I'm 23. This is my first full year.
I don't play a lot of tournaments, but if I don't win a tournament in a year, people are like, 'What in the world is going on?' People don't realize how hard it is to win tournaments. You're not going to go out and play 10 tournaments and win one of them. Your odds aren't that good.
I'm just trying to win games and give my team a chance, win as many as we can week in and week out.
Before I was going into tournaments and just hoping I would win one match. But now I'll go into tournaments expecting to do well and if I bring my best game I know I can win them and beat all the big players.
Because we're playing tournaments week in and week out I'd think to myself, 'What's the point in practising?' You have no down time to yourself and you're looking for some to spend with your family and friends. But I've now realised that with the game so cut-throat and standards going up every week, it doesn't work.
If I'm going to win a championship, I need to run top-five every week. I don't need to win every week.
We just have to try to play ball. We go week-to-week trying to find ways to win games. That is what it comes down to.
But I have been hitting for a week now and trying to get back into some sort of routine because I need to play well at tournaments.
I remember winning the first time, you know, suddenly everybody expects, well, okay, now he should win every time he tees it up, win six tournaments.
When I start winning big tournaments I don't think I'll just win tournaments, I think I'll blow them away.
Now I'm giving up a little in the week-to-week tournaments but reaping the benefits in the majors.
Obviously, you're being evaluated every single week, and you want to perform every single week. It's just going out there and doing everything possible to help the team win.
I've started to show the consistency in majors I had in regular tournaments back in 1998-2000 when I was contending nearly every week.
I know it's not the most important thing for me to win the most grand slams and be remembered in this world. I certainly don't have to win satellite tournaments here there and everywhere, I don't have to win at all. Although I do want to.
I know it's not the most important thing for me to win the most Grand Slams and be remembered in this world. I certainly don't have to win little tournaments here, there and everywhere, I don't have to win at all. Although I do want to.
Struggle and survival, losing and winning, doesn't matter. It's entering the race that counts. You enter, you can win, you can lose .... but it's all about entering the race.
