This course is long for me to start with, and you put some wind and some firm greens, it made it really tough for me to get it close. It's an honor simply to come here. This is a great experience for me.
This is a big week for all of us, and a lot is at stake. I have my goals set way back, and now I'm here and I'm ready to play.
This has been another great season and this victory caps it off.
A few years ago, things were looking a little different and I had some different plans and different goals. Then it took a little bit of a spin, and I had to adjust, and here I am a few years later with a different outlook on life and some different goals at the moment.
a very exciting day and I am very proud of our team. We all kept grinding and grinding and it worked out great.
That's just match play, ... That's what makes it so exciting.
The momentum is not there. I hit a lot of good shots, but my good shots don't get close.
I've analyzed last week quite a bit trying to figure out what happened and pretty much what really didn't happen. I just came to the conclusion that I tried, but things just didn't add up. I was pretty happy with the way I hit the ball and pretty happy the way I was putting. I just wasn't happy with where I ended up.
I wanted to get close to the pin without putting the bunker in play. All of a sudden he just kept talking about a straight shot. I don't know how many times you hit a straight shot in golf. It's very seldom. You either work it right to left or left to right, depending on the pin.
Sometimes you can't do a thing about it. You just have to try and keep on grinding and hope that things will turn around eventually.
Sometimes, it doesn't go your way. I hit a few bad shots, a few bad putts, and it just accumulated. Fortunately for me, I'm playing next week. I've got to forget about this as soon as I can.
A little disappointed about the outcome - it was so close. The US team played some great golf.
The Mizuno Classic has been good to me. This is the first time I've had no bogeys in a 54-hole round and the first time with no 3-putts so I was very consistent and solid.
