I was able to follow in his footsteps. It was nice to see the wind calm down so we could make some birdies.

I'm excited with the way I'm playing. It's nice to get the year started right.
job last nice today worked
It's nice to come back after the way things worked out last Sunday, to come out today and get the job done.
anytime bit calm closer david easier fed few follow good great hit nice played shoot today wind
It's just nice to see the wind calm down a little bit so you can make a few birdies out there. It was a little bit easier today to hit the fairways and get it closer to the hole. Obviously, it was a good day. Anytime you shoot a 62 is a great day. It was nice -- me and David just kind of fed off each other all day. He played great and I was able to kind of follow in his footsteps.
expect low phenomenal scores throughout
You expect low scores out here, but don't usually expect a 60. That's a phenomenal round. You can't really get too overwhelmed with the first round. You've just got to keep it up throughout the week.
hit
Even if you don't hit it a mile, you've got a chance.
course easy hit tough
(Thursday) was about as easy as you're probably going to get it and it wasn't very easy, you know. It's very tough out there, especially this afternoon. It's just a tough course to be able to hit it where you're looking.
bit few good last patient practicing refreshed stay
I didn't do much, started practicing a little bit the last few weeks, but didn't really play that much at all. That made it really good to come out here and be refreshed and stay patient during my round.
obviously
Obviously you want to play well in the majors. I think that's what I've been working toward.
compete goal
Obviously, your goal is to be able to compete in all the majors. I haven't done that as well as I'd like.
against definitely grinding player playing proud trophy wish
I wish they'd give the trophy away today, but they don't. It's definitely an accomplishment, and I'm proud of myself for grinding it out and playing so well against the No. 1 player in the world.
last since
Since last year, everything is going a lot better for me.
compete course hit improved learned maybe
Maybe I feel like my game's improved and I feel like I can play this course and compete on this course. I've learned where to hit it, where not to hit it, to some extent. Just try to keep it out of those spots.
guys start
Obviously, those guys have a lot more experience. But I'd like to start somewhere.
