| “ | I've never been a very technical player. I don't get caught up in swing positions and mechanics. When I work on my swing...I'm looking for feels.

Like any family will tell you, it's not easy. And it's a change of life, a change of priorities. You've got to be ready for it. And it's happening more often. I never knew about it, never thought about it, until it's in your lap. | ” |
