(Donald) missed a little putt on 10, and we both were kind of spilling oil. But, boy, he came right back and birdied 13 and 14. He really did what he had to do to win. |
Any more on this tour, it's better to be aggressive than anything else. I'll play the same way tomorrow -- as aggressive as I can. But not stupid. |
He told me how some of the greens broke, which helped me a lot. He showed me some tricks around the greens that I'd never realized before. |
I did putt well, ... I didn't hit it quite as well today. I didn't drive it as well. The par-threes is when I hit it close and made birdies. |
I guess you could call it gut-check time. I had lost all confidence in my putting, and on the PGA Tour, that's what it always comes down to. |
I just messed up on the par-5s. |
I like the golf course. It's not standing there and shooting darts all the time. Yeah, we've had some high winds, and conditions have been tough. I just like playing that way. |
I made a bunch of pars and got hot there at the end. |
I met a gentleman who gave me a golf ball from when I finished one of my matches there. It was old and yellow. |
I think the golf course is based on tradition. By changing the golf course, I think you lose a little bit of that tradition. We'll see how it plays out this year. Maybe it's time for a new tradition to be written too. Who knows? |
I think you have to hit it left today. If you carried it, it's still not going to go through the fairway too much. A couple of the long hitters can fly right over them, but most of us are going to have to play it left today. |
I was happy with my round. I hit the ball solid. I hit a lot of fairways and I putted real well. |
I would have to say anyone within five shots of the lead has a pretty good shot if the wind blows. If it stays calm, maybe not. |
I'd like to play well enough that I have a chance to get in another playoff with him. |
I'm going to go out and try to play my game and make some birdies. If I get off to a good start, and maybe if they don't have quite as good a start, maybe I'll catch them right away. It's 18 holes, and that back side will get hard and tricky. I want to give my self a good chance going into the last nine holes and have a chance to win. |
