It was horrible, no fun at all. It was a really tough day -- it was windy, rainy and cold. I just wanted to finish and have a cup of coffee in the clubhouse.
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.
This is kind of close to my home in Tahoe, so it's about time I came back, ... I am happy to be here and I look forward to playing this weekend.
I, personally, ... feel like I've got nothing to lose.
I had a lot of putts on the edges again, ... It wasn't until that last putt, that I really had one go in.
I had a lot of chances. I'm just not converting anything and when you don't, then you're making mistakes and walking away with bogey. So it's very frustrating and that's kind of how I feel like it's been the last month or so.
I had 128 yards to the front of the green, which is normally a pitching wedge. I used an 8-iron and a sand wedge to get on the green.
In Sweden, I thought the atmosphere was great. Obviously, we had a lot of fans pulling for us,
I like this golf course, ... I shoot under par here because I'm making my putts. I feel confident when I come here and I think that's important.
I don't think I'm going to try and qualify for the Open.
I don't really look at how many shots I'm ahead or behind tomorrow,
Hopefully, by the weekend, it will dry and it will play a little different.
He played aggressive. It was great to see. I loved playing with these guys.
I felt really good about my game, but you never know until you come out here and start putting your score together.
