Q: What is your favorite part of being on the PGA TOUR?
BUBBA WATSON: Just traveling and having the opportunity to see new golf courses

Q: What aspects of your game do you think needed the most improvement from last season?
BUBBA WATSON: I think my biggest hurdle has always been the mental game. It's no secret that I'm slightly ADD (ha), so improving that aspect of my game will be the biggest challenge. I've been trying to carry myself differently throughout my whole life and I think that will make a difference. Hopefully!

Q: Towards the end of last year you hired a trainer for the first time. What was the motivation behind that?
BUBBA WATSON: Better health.

Q: It looks like you lost quite a bit of weight, (give or take 30 pounds). Did your trainer completely change your diet?
BUBBA WATSON: No, not really. Before I got my trainer I had already started to changing my diet for health reasons. Now my trainer just helps keep me motivated.

Q: What's a typical breakfast for you on "game day"?
BUBBA WATSON: An English muffin with peanut butter, yogurt and cereal ... the healthy cereal that is. No captain crunch.

Q: What's the furthest drive you've ever had?
BUBBA WATSON: 14 hours! Ha-ha, just kidding. I think it was 422 yards.

Q: Where were you?
BUBBA WATSON: We were in Phoenix at Gila River, I think. It was when I was on the Nationwide Tour; they don't have that event anymore.

Q: The question everyone wants to know, how do you hit the ball so far?
BUBBA WATSON: Really? That's the question everyone wants to know! Ha-ha! Well, all of my power comes from my swing. I have such a wide takeaway and that's what helps build club speed.

Q: From what we've heard, you are a pretty phenomenal athlete. If you could play a different sport what would it be?
BUBBA WATSON: I love basketball, so definitely basketball.

Q: What are you looking forward to most on TOUR this year?
BUBBA WATSON: Playing good! I'm looking forward to playing better and more consistent, and hopefully getting my first win.
