Padraig Harrington insisted he was perfectly happy for Tiger Woods to have centre stage going into this week's Masters.
Harrington, of course, is the one going for a third different major in a row something only ever achieved by Ben Hogan and Woods.
But the world number one's comeback from injury, which already includes victory in the Arnold Palmer Invitational two weeks ago, is the story which has ignited the golf season.
This is Woods' first major since he pulled off his astonishing US Open victory virtually on one leg last June, and he is trying to take his total to 15, just three short of Jack Nicklaus' record.
Harrington, yet to manage a top-10 finish in seven events in the States this year, said: "Tiger, when you get to the bigger stage, is the top dog and he deserves the attention with what he's done.
"It's a fantastic story, but I've got three majors. It's a dream come true for me and I'm fully concentrating on what I'm doing in my career.
"You know, it makes no difference to me. The outside stuff I can't control, so I'm not too fussed about it."
