Why would you temper your emotions?" 15:42.483 --> 15:44.818 You should show when you're angry, when you're sad. 15:44.902 --> 15:47.905 That makes the happy moments that much better, so… 15:48.489 --> 15:50.658 Yeah, just trying to be more like my father. 15:51.867 --> 15:54.370 I'm really proud of you.

Uh… 16:24.775 --> 16:27.277 "It makes you stronger. It makes you stronger." 16:27.361 --> 16:31.365 I'm really, really proud of what he's accomplished, for sure.

Some, you can't take off. 18:00.704 --> 18:01.538 Yeah. 18:03.290 --> 18:07.252 [man 2] The difficult thing for a rookie is you have to learn new golf courses, 18:07.753 --> 18:10.297 playing against people with more experience, 18:10.380 --> 18:12.633 on courses they can remember in their sleep. 18:12.716 --> 18:14.635 It's a real fast learning curve. 18:16.553 --> 18:20.307 [Pereira] It's never gonna be easy, but I wanna get better. 18:20.390 --> 18:22.810 I think I have to step up my game 18:22.893 --> 18:25.979 to really become a top player. 18:28.357 --> 18:31.026 [Niemann] Driving while using the phone, eh? 18:31.110 --> 18:32.486 No. It's just… 18:33.028 --> 18:34.905 [laughing] 18:34.988 --> 18:35.864 No?

Off the course is another. 19:31.420 --> 19:35.048 [Niemann] We knew we were gonna somehow meet each other on tour. 19:35.549 --> 19:37.968 He took too long, though. [laughs] 19:39.636 --> 19:41.430 -[man] What a shot. -[Niemann] Mito. 19:43.223 --> 19:44.391 [man] Stop. Stop.

Joaquin grew up idolizing Mito. 20:26.141 --> 20:29.561 And now all of a sudden, Mito, as a 27-year-old rookie, 20:29.645 --> 20:32.522 is looking at Joaquin and wants what he has. 20:32.606 --> 20:34.608 -Can you sign my shirt? -[Pereira] Of course. 20:34.691 --> 20:38.362 [Pereira] That power that he has is really good. 20:38.445 --> 20:41.907 Just a normal, mortal guy can do that. 20:42.741 --> 20:45.577 [Pereira] All right.
