I'm not that clued up on the American sports yet really.

Several professional athletes have wrongly taught many young Americans by example that the only way to succeed in sports is to take steroids.

For a while I was on the cover of every Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue which was regarded as the pinnacle of success in America.

I receive huge support from Irish and British sports fans alike and it is greatly appreciated. Likewise I feel I have a great affinity with the American sports fans. I play most of my golf in the U.S. nowadays and I am incredibly proud to have won the U.S. Open and U.S. PGA Championship in the last two years.

I keep getting these extraordinary letteres really weird ones from American sports stars - I've always thought you were one pretty lady and now that you're single I want to meet you for a drink.

Americans' addiction to sports with the NFL at the top is based on the excitement generated by the potential for the unexpected great play which can only happen with honest competition from great athletes.

There's a whole lot more to the African-American community than entertainment and sports.

The American people are sheep. They're comfortable rich working. It's like the Romans they're happy with bread and their spectator sports. The Super Bowl means more to them than any right.

Boxing has become America's tragic theater.

Golf is played by twenty million mature American men whose wives think they are out having fun.
