Honestly, people can write anything they want about me and I could care less, but once you start writing stuff about my family, my wife and my daughter and son or my mother-in-law, then you’re drawing a line.
— Patrick Reed
People make conclusions about somebody before they actually get to know someone.
I’ve always enjoyed being... I guess you would call it the underdog.
In the past, I put too much pressure on myself. I went out there and I tried so hard to get the ball in the hole, I tried so hard to hit the perfect shots.
Honestly, I don’t really care what people say on Twitter or what they say if they are cheering for me or not cheering for me.
Just be you. Play golf. If you get riled up, show it. If you aren't happy about something, it's all right. Just play golf.
If I could have my wife and kids on the road with me every week, I would.
Every player has to figure out what works best for them. So yes, I like the way I work, and if that gives me a competitive edge, that's great and if it doesn't that's okay too.
I just kind of live in that world that everyone’s upset with me. That’s OK; I’ll just go out and try and do what I do.
I think the biggest thing is to continue grinding and not let the crowds of people get in the way of you’re trying to do.
At the end of the day, all I can do is control me and what comes out of my mouth.
You know, that's one great thing about the sport we play is you know, whether it's here, whether it's anywhere else we play or whether it's around the world. A lot of the fans, they respect great golf and they want to see great golf.
It’s just one of those things, I believe in myself and - especially with how hard I’ve worked - I’m one of the top five players in the world.
Honestly, I don't ever regret anything I say.
If I’m successful. It’s because of hard work - not for any other reason. Everyone on the Tour works hard, you can’t be on Tour if you don’t.
When it comes right down to it, I don’t care if I like the person I’m paired with or if the person likes me as long as it works and it sets up the team for success.
There are the guys that wear the white hats and they’re painting the picture of someone to wear the black hat and they chose me - even though they don’t really know me.
You just have your teammates and yourself out there to pick you up, so just kind of shows you how strong you really can be.
For somebody as successful in the Ryder Cup as I am, I don’t think it’s smart to sit me twice.
If you don’t believe in yourself, no one else is going to.
I’ve worked so hard, I’ve won a lot in my junior career, did great things in my amateur career, was 6-0 in match play in NCAAs, won NCAAs two years in a row, got third individually one year, and now I have three wins out here on the PGA Tour.
You know that once you're successful, there's going to be good things and bad things that people say and, honestly, to me it doesn't really matter.
I’ve been passionate about the game of golf since I first held a club in my hand. I don’t ever see that changing.
