The Boot Room brings you sport from around the world.

Check out this series of boasts from Tiger Woods after yesterday's USPGA victory:

"If you would have told me 12 years ago that I would have this many wins and this many majors I would have said 'There is no way',"

"I have exceeded my own expectations and I'm certainly not against that."

"Other guys have gotten tired. You see their shoulders slumping and dragging. I feel fine,"

"You should always train hard and bust your butt. Not everyone considers golf a sport and they don't treat it as such. You pay the price."

"You outwork everybody and days like today it showed."

"When I was walking up 18 I felt the same way I did going off the first tee."

"Staying in shape is a huge advantage - at home all the miles I log on the road and run in the heat."

"These guys made a run at me but I got it done somehow down the stretch,"

"You start to get a feel for how to do it," Woods said. "There is an art to winning and I certainly believe that."

"I have more shots than I did back then. I am more experienced and I have learned how to make adjustments on the fly. I am sure I will say the same things about myself seven years from now."

All in one interview! Fantastic stuff!

Bloody hell -- CT trying to take credit for my hilarious blog posts by sneakily leaving herself logged in ON MY COMPUTER.

But this does give me the opportunity to reflect on the first weekend of the new league. And what a start. Self-styled "Doctor" Geoff Goodwin out in the lead; me handily placed in 2nd place; a strange gender divide evident -- glass ceiling perhaps? It's shaping up to be a cracker!

We now all know what makes Tiger Woods tick as a golfer. But what about the man behind the boast? The Boot Room can reveal some exclusive facts:
• Like real tigers, Tiger is strong yet sleek
• Unlike real tigers, Tiger is an excellent speller
• Tiger is a good listener
• Tiger is a great cook, but isn't fussy what he eats
• Tiger is an effective baby-sitter
• Tiger has a good sense of direction
• Tiger owns a digital watch, but can also tell the time in analog
FACT!

Sounds like the ideal mate really. What's his shot-making like in the sack, do you reckon? Any ladies care to speculate? We know he can get it done out there on the course....
