"Everyone that is here, one, thank you kindly for getting me and complimenting me and giving a shout out to me all through. However, this golf stuff and the outcome, it's beautiful, certain. Yet, it's simply — it's simply not excessively significant.
"One thing that I sort of considered the previous evening, particularly laying in bed, I would challenge everyone here, and I will do this without anyone else's help too, every day, is to offer something pleasant to somebody you love. And furthermore make it a highlight offer something pleasant to someone you don't have the foggiest idea. The world is an extremely challenging spot. The world is troublesome and just getting more troublesome. I've been honored with extraordinary guardians and an incredible emotionally supportive network, and I haven't had, other than some disappointment on occasion, any fights intellectually. Be that as it may, Ruler knows the number of individuals that do and it's just truly expanding. So everyone here could be a distinction. The distinction. Light up someone's day. It could mean everything.
"The test — I'll begin. I'm certain I'll direct a few extraordinary sentiments toward individuals that I love, ideally here very soon. Yet, the second piece of the test, offer something good to individuals that I don't have any idea. I might want to address all of you all that are here: Thank you with the utmost sincerity. Knoxville, you folks were warm and thoughtful hosts. This will mean everything to me as I recall it, however I will simply recollect the extraordinary individuals that I met here in Knoxville. So once more, with the utmost sincerity, much obliged. We should all attempt to put some great out on the planet."
After four days, at the Canadian Open, long-term companion Akshay Bhatia composed to his left side wrist, in dark marker, "G $," or G-cash. To his Instagram story, before his initial Thursday evening tee time, he posted an image of it and expressed: "We should ride today G."
"He's quite possibly of my dearest friend around here, grew up together," Bhatia said after play that day. "I admired him for quite a while. I just — definitely, I wish he was still here, yet I know he's here watching above everybody. Better believe it, it's simply insane. Like I was driving yesterday — two or three days prior, returning from supper back to the lodging, and out of the blue, I shifted focus over to one side, and there was a garbage bin with G-cash on it. Simply freaky stuff happens like that where I know he's with us.
"Better believe it, I'm playing for him this week, and each round I play for the following however lengthy. Definitely, he's simply with me constantly, and he made a big difference to me. Simply blissful and glad to wear Grayson's name on my wrist."
