The biggest thing was just getting comfortable out there in front of all the people and just the whole major setting and how difficult major championships are, how patient... you have to be.
— Peter Uihlein
I'd like to just win everything. It would just be awesome.
My dad is just like everybody else's dad. I see him as kind of a goofy guy with a great sense of humor. I try to get in a battle of wits with him, but he always gets me. I emulate him because I've never seen anyone work as hard as he does.
Golf has always been a part of my life. My parents have footage of me in a walker swinging a plastic club. If I didn't play golf, I would have been a baseball player. I could sit and watch baseball all day.
I was born in Massachusetts. I live in Stillwater. I went to school in Florida.
I try to go out, check out the town, and have a good time. It's a life experience: not everyone gets the chance to see the world and play golf, do the thing you love while travelling.
I've been to India, and I never thought I'd go there.
I've never really been somebody that thinks too much about what I've done.
That's match play. You've got to get lucky. You've got to try to catch somebody on a down day when you have a down day.
I felt like, by the end of the week in the U.S. Amateur, I was never aiming at a flag; I was just hitting it at slopes and just letting the natural contours take over.
I did some traveling as an amateur and always loved the different places I saw.
I had always wanted to see the world, and the PGA Tour was always going to be there.
Golf is a humbling sport.
I'd definitely like to be one of the best golfers in the world, of all time.
When I was 13, I told my dad I wanted to move to Florida to attend the IMG Academy. I wanted to be a golfer, and that's hard to do in New England where I could only practice half the year.
I loved my time at OSU. It was unbelievable experience, and I'm definitely going to miss it.
It's all about becoming a more well-rounded player and not a one-dimensional player. You might hear someone say, 'Hilton Head sets up well for them.' I don't want that stereotype.
As long as you can find a place to develop as an all-round player, then you're doing great.
The European Tour plays all over the world: from the U.K. to China, from Korea to South Africa, and from the Middle East to southeast Asia.
St. Andrews is the Home of Golf and the greatest course in the world. Any time you can win at St. Andrews would be special. It's every golfer's dream to win out here.
It's the Masters. If that doesn't get you nervous and your juices flowing, I don't know what does.
You are going to hit some good shots and not get rewarded, but that's just U.S. Open golf. It's tough; it's hard.
Name a country, and I have probably been there.
Take Ernie Els. He plays in every country. You see his name everywhere. He's received in different parts of the world. It's a good experience.
Playing with Phil Mickelson, it doesn't get any better than that.
It's an honor to win the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year award.
I grew up in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and I'm a huge Red Sox fan. I've probably been to Fenway 40 times. I've been pretty lucky as a sports fan because the Patriots have won Super Bowls and the Red Sox have won World Series during my lifetime.
There has been a great list of players who cut their teeth in Europe.
Name me one golfer that doesn't get frustrated.
I went cage diving in South Africa with Great Whites, and that was fun. Sweden was cool.
I've been trying to be the best representative for my school, my family, and the USGA as I possibly could.
I've never really been somebody who likes to hit it straight. That's just never been my forte, I guess.
I'm just going to go out and play. At the end of the day, you are still hitting a little white ball with your clubs.
I don't mind playing or watching a movie or sitting down.
Winning is fun and great, but I would rather have a long, successful and healthy career than a short one with a few wins.
