Who gave you the nickname Happy Gilmore?
"It was actually the Australian news media, after I won a few events when I was 17 years old. I guess it's due to the film title and my surname matching. Unfortunately, it's haunted me ever since."

"Never underestimate yourself! Never stop learning or looking for inspiration, and as Marilyn Monroe said, 'Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius, and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.'"
