After I double-bogeyed [my fourth hole, No. 13], I thought if I can get it anywhere under par, that's an unbelievable result.

Even though it was an easy pin today and an easy day, still you've seen so many people mess it up over the years. It's such a famous hole. That was probably the only nervous shot all day, my tee shot on 12.

Every single time in those first four games, my opponent had a putt to knock me out of the tournament. And no one made one, which is pretty fortunate.

He just doesn't miss. I dodged a bullet but it's nice to get through, because I played pretty well.

I don't have anything good to say. World Golf Championships, I mean that suggests they're going to be played everywhere, and they tend to not be played in very many places.

I don't know, I can't explain it. It happens in match play. Once a guy starts winning holes, you keep winning holes.

I don't think it was everyone's favorite golf course at first but I think it's grown on people. You have to hit the ball well, you have to chip well and you have to putt well — and you have to use your brain.

I got a big bonus on six with the double-eagle. I made a couple of nice up and downs on the front nine. All in all, an eagle and a double-eagle in one round is a real bonus.

I got away with one big time. A Masters champion, you don't expect him to give you any help. But he helped me out a bit.

I guess I got lucky.

I had my hat in my hand. I was ready – and he missed.
|
I knew I was one behind before I hit my tee shot,
|
I knew I was tied when I made the putt, ... And I knew I was one behind before I hit my next tee shot.
|
I made some good putts and for the most part I played really well. I got lucky a couple times. But how do you forget the week you had your first double eagle? It was good.
|
I played really well. I could have had two or three better if I'd made a few putts, but all in all I'm very happy.
