Adam Scott's caddie Steve Williams has admitted he should not have been so outspoken in the aftermath of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational.

The New Zealander spoke very arrogantly after Adam Scott won the event and made it sound almost as if he had won the tournament himself saying things like, "the most satisfying win of my career", despite having won 13 Majors caddieing for Tiger Woods.

"Looking back on it, I was a bit over the top," Williams said. "I had a lot of anger in me about what happened and it all came out.

"I said what I said, but I'm not going to say any more about Tiger. I had a lot of emotions going on all week. You hear people say 'How good are you now that you're not caddieing for Tiger?', things like that and it makes you want to prove yourself.

"When we were coming down the stretch and all those people were calling out my name, I mean I've never experienced anything like that and when Adam won, all of a sudden, all that emotion poured out.

"But, look, it's time to move on. The Tiger thing is over."
