Navajo / Pueblo golfer Notah Begay III is ready to get back to winning after battling two years of injuries and depression.

"There were times when I didn't even want to get out of bed," Begay tells The Albuquerque Journal. "I felt so bad physically and emotionally."

Begay was at the top of the PGA charts but was sidelined by a back injury. He says he had problems dealing with his rise to fame. He also struggled with an alcohol problem.
