Q: First time your point clinched the Cup. How does that feel?
TIGER WOODS: Oh, did it really? No, I swear, I didn't.
Q: Freddie didn't know?
TIGER WOODS: He didn't tell me.
Q: That finished it right there.
TIGER WOODS: Oh, perfect. All I knew was I was trying to get my point, and I was 5 up, trying to make it six.
Q: Were you aware at all that your match might be the deciding match?
TIGER WOODS: No, I didn't look at any boards. I saw we were down six matches at one point, so I just kept my head down and tried to extend my own lead.
Q: Clinching point for the Cup, maybe a little revenge in this match at all?
TIGER WOODS: Well, you know, he got me once, and hopefully, I can get him a second time. But he got off to a good start. He birdied the first, and I made a mistake there, and from then on, I actually played pretty good. I hit a couple loose shots here and there, but I really putted well, other than missing that putt over there at 12, that was about it.
Q: Comfortable all through the week?
TIGER WOODS: There were a couple of moments where I didn't feel all that comfortable with my swing, but when you have Stricker making everything from everywhere, that certainly carried us. Today was just one of those days where I was just trying to get up, and once I finally got up, made a couple bombs there, and I was rolling.
Q: Pretty good year for you?
TIGER WOODS: It's a great year, are you kidding me? Even though I didn't win a major championship, to come back from what I came back from, to have the success I had this year, I don't think anyone would have predicted that, and I'm very proud of that.
Q: Any extra incentive after what happened at Hazeltine?
TIGER WOODS: Well, he got me there, and I figured I could get him here.
