James Wolcott

You're sitting there having breakfast at the St. Regis with Scooter Aspen, buttering each other's toast, and somehow the name 'Valerie Flame' pops up in your notebook without you knowing how it got there! It's your handwriting, sure enough, but rack your brain much as you will, you just can't remember which little birdie tweeted that name into your ear.

To be honest with you, I had a couple of good up and downs for par towards the middle part there when the wind got a little bit swirly. So making pars was good. Then the birdie at the last and not making any bogeys was key.

Michelle Wie

Davis Love

It was tough, real windy. We couldn't get enough birdie putts. It was hard to hit it in the fairway, hard to hit it close.

Padraig Harrington

I missed a couple of birdie chances on the last few holes which would have made it a good round. But it's not the end of the world.

Fred Funk

It was one of those things where you are thinking you have to do more than you have to coming down the back nine. I tried some shots a little too aggressively and paid the price, made some bogeys. All of a sudden I lost the lead. I did birdie the last two holes, but it was too late at that point.

It was certainly another strong match for D.J.. Sage finished with a birdie to shoot a 79. He shot a 37 on the backside. It's starting to come together for the team.

Rory Sabbatini

It's definitely crucial on this golf course that if you do get opportunities to have a 15 or 20 footer for birdie that you make some of them, ... If you're not making birdies on this golf course, you're going to shoot a high number. It's just inevitable.

Hale Irwin

It's been just awful. Including the pro-am, I've not made a birdie in 54 holes. Right now, I'm not a very good player. There's nothing in my game that's worth talking about. That's the game. You take your lumps and I'll be back.

It was an OK round. It could have been so much better. I missed a lot of birdie putts. I gave myself a lot of chances and just couldn't sink them but it happens.

Thongchai Jaidee

It's okay, I'm still happy. Charlie was very good with a really good score. I shot 66 which wasn't good enough, I guess. I had birdie chances on the last two holes but didn't make them.

Luke Donald

It's obviously not the start I wanted, but I knew there were a lot of birdie holes out there.

He really played well at state. He didn't putt well, but he's a very good ball-striker. He couldn't make an 8-foot birdie or his score could've been even lower. A 160 at that course is a pretty good score.

If I can make an eagle there (on 17) and then birdie 18, he's going to feel some heat. You've got to make those when you're in contention. But I was injured (elbow inflammation) and didn't even know if I was going to play so I'm happy with my performance.

Tiger Woods

I figured if I could birdie 17 and 18 and post a number I would at least have some kind of a chance.

E. O. Wilson

If I could have rolled in some of the birdie putts early and not made the silly bogey from the fairway on 18, I could have something real special today. I'm still happy with what it is, though.

Annika Sorenstam

It was just one of those days. I am happy with the way I am playing, I just couldn't get it together today. I'm just glad I made birdie on the last hole. Hopefully I can turn it around.
