What's In My Bag? Angel Cabrera
June 2008
AGE: 38 / LIVES: Cordoba, Argentina / STORY: Became the first Argentine to win a U.S. Open with his victory at Oakmont in 2007.
EXPECTATIONS
I don't feel pressure to win another major to prove Oakmont wasn't a fluke. Before, when I hadn't won one, that's when I felt pressure.

COLD TURKEY
Last August, I got sick for 10 days and didn't have a cigarette the whole time. When I got well, I noticed I felt stronger on the course. So I decided to quit, and I haven't smoked one since.
KISS THE COOK
When I'm on the road traveling, the things I miss most are my two children and barbecuing with friends. Rack of ribs, lamb and veal are my specialties.
HIGHLIGHT REELS
I've only seen a handful of short clips of my U.S. Open win. I remember how I did it; I don't need to watch a video.
COINS OF THE REALM
I grab coins and tees in my travels, but I usually mark my ball with a coin from Argentina, either a peso or a 10-centavo piece.
