- All I can say is that I'm getting married in the future. I've narrowed it down to that.
- All that really matters is I have two beautiful kids, and I'm trying to be the best dad I can possibly be, and that's the most important thing of all.
- As a child, the family that I had and the love I had from my two parents allowed me to go ahead and be more aggressive, to search and to take risks knowing that, if I failed, I could always come home to a family of love and support.
- Don't force your kids into sports. I never was. To this day, my dad has never asked me to go play golf. I ask him. It's the child's desire to play that matters, not the parent's desire to have the child play. Fun. Keep it fun.
- For many my behavior has been a major disappointment, my behavior has caused considerable worry to my business partners, and everyone involved in my business, but most importantly to the young people we influence, I apologize.
- Hockey is a sport for white men. Basketball is a sport for black men. Golf is a sport for white men dressed like black pimps.
- Hopefully I'll continue to have the success I've had.
- I always come from truth.
- I felt that I had worked hard my entire life and deserved to enjoy all the temptations around me. I felt I was entitled, and thanks to money and fame, I didn't have to go far to find them.
- I get to play golf for a living. What more can you ask for - getting paid for doing what you love.
- I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart.
- I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves.
- I hurt my wife, my kids, my mother, my wife's family, my friends, my foundation and kids all around the world who admired me.
- I will have to earn trust and respect from my kids.
- I'd like to share my experiences and the lessons I've learned and hopefully create some amazing, fun courses.
- If money titles meant anything, I'd play more tournaments. The only thing that means a lot to me is winning. If I have more wins than anybody else and win more majors than anybody else in the same year, then it's been a good year.
- If you are given a chance to be a role model, I think you should always take it because you can influence a person's life in a positive light, and that's what I want to do. That's what it's all about.
- I'm aware if I'm playing at my best I'm tough to beat. And I enjoy that.
- I'm not as far along as Jack Nicklaus was at this age, but I'm trying.
- It's cool now to play golf.
- Money and fame made me believe I was entitled. I was wrong and foolish.
- My dad used to say, 'Just because you dress up in a coat and tie, it doesn't influence your intelligence.'
- My dad was my best friend and greatest role model. He was an amazing dad, coach, mentor, soldier, husband and friend.
- My mom was tough.
- People don't understand that when I grew up, I was never the most talented. I was never the biggest. I was never the fastest. I certainly was never the strongest. The only thing I had was my work ethic, and that's been what has gotten me this far.
- Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions.
- The amount of meetings I've been in - people would be shocked. But that's how you gain experience, how you can gain knowledge, being in meetings and participating. You learn and grow.
- The Masters is where I won my first major, and I view this tournament with great respect. After a long and necessary time away from the game, I feel like I'm ready to start my season at Augusta.
- The thing you don't dream about as a kid is all the peripheral stuff that comes with success.
- The virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one's own family.
- There's no sense in going to a tournament if you don't believe that you can win it. And that is the belief I have always had. And that is not going to change.
- To have the opportunity to complete the slam at the Open at St Andrews, the home of golf, is something I will never ever forget.
