Because I Lived So Close To The

The Fact Is, I've Always Felt More British Than Irish. Maybe It Was The Way I Was Brought Up, I Don't Know, But I Have Always Felt More Of A Connection With The U.k. Than With Ireland.

Home Will Always Be Northern Ireland But My Schedule Means For The Next Few Years I Won't Be There As Much. I Can't Do The Same Things That I Did A Year Ago. That Is I'm Something Conscious Of, But I'm Not Sad About It. It's Fine.

I'm Sure There Was An Educational Angle To The Trips (i Think One Was To The Ulster Museum) But It Was The Fun And Banter I Had With My Friends I Remember The Most.

I Receive Huge Support From Irish And British Sports Fans Alike And It Is Greatly Appreciated. Likewise I Feel I Have A Great Affinity With The American Sports Fans. I Play Most Of My Golf In The U.s. Nowadays And I Am Incredibly Proud To Have Won The U.s. Open And U.s. Pga Championship In The Last Two Years.

I'm Afraid There Are No Replays Or Second Chances In Amateur Or Professional Golf, And That's The Way It Should Be.
