bad finished four great greens holes leave played time
I finished with a birdie, so I think I'll leave this place with a smile, ... This was the first time I played here in the morning. The greens were a lot smoother and in great shape. It's too bad I had only four holes (to play Monday).
bogey few finally fought hard holes playing putter takes today tough
Today my putter let me down a few times. I fought really hard out there. I really tried. When I finally make a birdie, a bogey comes in. It takes 10 holes to make another birdie. It's a little tough at the moment. I feel I'm playing better, but nothing happens.
bit event forward holes last love played playing third time
Last time I played I had to go 36 holes in one day which was a bit much. But I love playing in 72-hole tournaments and look forward to this event before the third major.
adrenaline challenge coming extra few hit holes kicking knowing left love nine perfect shots starts stretch
I love the challenge and I love coming down the stretch and making the shots you need to, ... It's just the extra excitement, knowing there are just a few holes left and having to hit the perfect shot. That's when all my adrenaline starts kicking in, on the back nine because that's when it matters.
certain cold conditions forward greens holes looking morning pin sure today tricky warm wind
I really didn't know what to expect, ... It's tricky on certain holes and the greens have a lot of different pin possibilities. There was wind yesterday, and today there was no wind. I'm sure we can get a lot of different conditions - it was a little cold this morning and warm in the afternoon. I'm looking forward to it.

The spectators have been fantastic. It has been a really first-class event and I'm happy here.

I've been there before. You've just got to keep on grinding. I proved it again to myself that you just can never give up.
driving game good hitting seems
I've been hitting it beautifully, driving it good and hitting a lot of greens. But nothing seems to happen. I'm being optimistic, my game is there.
bit chance forward good great last looking needed practice quite vacation
I've been on vacation for two weeks. I feel very relaxed. I've had a chance to practice quite a bit the last two days. I needed a break, but now I feel good again, so I'm looking forward to a great week.
best certainly coming field forward great last looking memories mountain playing winning wonderful
They always have a great field in Phoenix. That's what makes it one of the best tournaments on the tour. I have some wonderful memories from playing in Phoenix, and certainly winning the last two at Superstition Mountain are included, so I'm looking forward to coming back.
focus particular player
The way I look at it is I have to play my own game. I can't focus on any particular player because there's too much to do on my own. I have enough on my plate.
far season
The season is far from over for me and for some other players,
