All quotes βThere are no shortcuts. I approached practices the same way I approached games. You can't turn it on and off like a faucet. I couldn't dog it during practice and then, when I needed that extra push late in the game, expect it to be there. Very few people get anywhere by taking shortcuts.

I know what the fix is and I've proven it to myself, and it's just a matter of going out there and executing it consistently over 72 holes.
