Good morning from Beijing. I would like to wish all the Mom's out there a Happy Mother's Day! I look forward to joining all of you next year! I am about to go and look at the land on a new course I am designing in China. I then fly home later today, which makes me happy!
I would like to congratulate my fellow countryman, and neighbor, Henrik Stenson on winning the Players Championship. That is easily the biggest win for any male golfer from Sweden. He is a great guy and it had to be special to win on Mother's Day....he and his wife Emma have a cute little girl, Lisa. Ironically, he and Ian Poulter live only a few doors down from my parents here at Lake Nona.
Well it's time to get moving. Have a great day!
Travel safe....
Take care....

Happy Mother's Day everyone! I would like to thank my Mom for everything! She is an amazing person, excellent teacher, loving Mother, and great friend! I am also lucky to have a fun, loving Mother-in-Law in Gunilla!
Also....Happy "almost" Mother's Day to my Sweetie! :)

Annika,
Yes, Henrik was "precise & radar-like" like someone else we know. He & Fannie are a great team.
Visiting the Olypic Village must have been a treat. What an awesome place was created.
YUP! Next year we'll be including you in the "shout out" to all mothers!!
Your lady is on her way back home Mike...three cheers!
Pretty cool that your folks will be nearby at Lake Nona

In the recent Q&A I had asked whether your parents had moved to Orlando (Lake Nona). I just got my answer from you! I'm assuming they moved into your old house at Lake Nona if they live just a few doors from Ian and Henrik.

That is correct Robert. They live in her original house here. Yani Tseng now lives in our "old house."

Mike and Annika ~ Mother's Day was especially sweet for my mother, Sue, as it was also her 70th birthday. She LOVED the photo you autographed to her; and is still tickled you wished her Happy Birthday over the phone @ Wente (I really put you on the spot Annika, but you were SO gracious). I am so blessed to have such a wonderful Mom (and Dad); no doubt both of you will be wonderful parents too.
By the way, it's a BOY!
