Yes.
I had a hard time reconciling because that was the goal the entire time.
Yeah, so that's interesting.
When I didn't believe in that goal, I wish that I could have had in that moment more enjoyment.
Of just being on the tour.
Yeah, and I didn't work that way.
It was pass-fail.
It was like misery.
I was trying to out-train everyone, make up for what I lacked in ability.
I often had these conversations with Brooke, my wife.
I was like, I was jealous of some of the guys that were 20 or 25 in the world that you would see a half hour after a loss.
And they were like happy.
Going out with their buddies, enjoying the town you're in.
I didn't know if it was great that it didn't have that or great that I didn't know.
And so I struggled with that the last couple of years.
I watched my friend Marty from the serving story earlier.
We were on the same Olympic team.
I was seeded two.
I lost early.
He made it to the finals.
