BW: But you’ve admitted that early in your career you didn’t work as hard as you could have. At what point did you figure that out and that you needed to work harder?
 
AS: I see a really clear line in my career around 2009, 2010, where I started to figure things out, a bit with myself, a bit with the people around me, putting all the ingredients of the recipe together, and it came clear to me at that point. I really don't have regrets that I didn't work harder. I could have, honestly, yeah, I could have worked harder. But I didn't have all this knowledge when I was younger. The right messages weren't getting through from whoever was around me to work harder and make the absolute most of this opportunity.

BW: As terrific as Rory, Jordan, Jason and Rickie have been, it’s not the same.
 
AS: Tiger was above double the points in front of second place in the world rankings. He could have not played for a year at one point and still be No. 1. It was crazy. He was crazy good. And everyone is quick to forget about all kind of things.
 

BW: A lot of players are into social media. You don’t do any of it. How come?
 
AS: It did cross my mind, and I signed up for Instagram and posted something once, I think. But then I just got off it. I was on my phone too much already anyway, so starting to scroll through everyone's pictures was annoying to other people around me. So I just don't really have any desire to do any of that kind of stuff. I'd just rather use my time doing something else, really.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

    • Day 172: mirror work for a while during SNF. Working on cleaning up the early backswing stuff. Definitely seeing the improvements I’m looking for. 
    • @jxdama: Same dumb schtick since joining. Yup. Also, it's a par-73.
    • Day 97 - 2025-01-05 Showed up to something that absolutely floored me, and then was busy right through to 9:00. So, I got 5:00 in at night, at home, before bed. My rib cage hurts from a cough (ha ha, but also, f***), and I think I have a mild ear infection in my right ear. Things are just f***ing great.
    • OMG Jerry Barber shot -20 back in 1960! Let's go back and time and bitch about how easy it is to play golf. My goodness, Calvin Pete shot a -21 in 1986! Wait a second, David Duval shot -26 back in 1999! Hold up, Ernie Els shot a -31 back in 2003!!!!  (all scores at The Sentry, it is a very easy golf course for PGA Tour players).  The concept that golf in the past is this protecting par or what not is just romanticized BS. Golfer's have been tearing apart golf courses for decades. Let's have a sense of perspective to base our opinions, ok?     
    • I wont  comment further except to say maybe we  can get a  -40 winner soon on these tests  of golf  skill     Hideki Matsuyama runs away with The Sentry, breaks scoring record to open new PGA Tour season Hideki Matsuyama picked up his 11th PGA career win on Sunday afternoon in Hawaii.
