I really pushed for the event to come here for a number of reasons. One was that you heard rumblings from U.S. guys complaining about having to travel far to play. I don't blame them. They have to play an event every year, This is an easy one -- just travel a bit north. There won't be complaining from guys coming to play. (Quote by - Mike Weir)

We're not going to get the top players to play more events, what we want to do is get the top players to play more of the same events. And I think that we're creeping up on that and getting maybe three or four additional tournaments where the top players will play - even if we continue playing maybe just the same number of events that we've played in years past. (Quote by - Phil Mickelson)

I have seen boys on my baseball team go into slumps and never come out of them, and I have seen others snap right out and come back better than ever.

Experience is not what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you. (Quote by - Aldous Huxley)

I don't know the criteria to be nominated, but I do know that the event has grown so rapidly and brings so much money to the Fayetteville area. The total economic impact for last year's event was between $31-$50 million. It's the largest single event in the state. We've got a lot to be proud of. (Quote by - Nelson Driver)

We're just going to focus on individual events this weekend. The majority of the team will travel home Saturday night after the individual events, while a couple of the field event competitors will stay to compete Sunday. It makes it difficult to compete in the relays on Sunday, travel home and be prepared for classes Monday morning. (Quote by - Elvis Forde)

Events will take their course, it is no good of being angry at them; he is happiest who wisely turns them to the best account. (Quote by - Euripides)
