beating definitely match number player proud
Match play is crazy. That's definitely a big accomplishment, beating the number one player in the world. I'm proud of myself right now.
fellow honor looked players pressure took
I thought it was an honor that fellow players looked at me that way. I don't think I really put too much more pressure on myself. I just took it as a compliment.
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.
best handle hardest ought pin players supposed
You take 10, back right, that's the hardest pin on that green. Eleven, that's the hardest pin on that green, 12, that's the hardest pin on that green. So you see what I'm saying. Which is fine. That's the way it's supposed to be. We're supposed to be the best players in the world, so we ought to be able to handle it.
expect player
He makes so many of those, and it's just amazing. You always see it. You kind of expect it from a player like that.
good lead standing tee
When you've got a 3-up lead through 10, that's a pretty good lead. Standing on the 13th tee only being 1 up, you're pretty disappointed.
honest ready
I was getting ready to go to No. 1, to be honest with you. You know, he makes so many of those, and it's just amazing. You always see it.

I think that's key in this tournament. A lot of them, you knock it on in two...and I've been able to make birdie on most of them.

I was able to follow in his footsteps.
experience start
Sure, they've got a little more experience at this than I do. But you've got to start somewhere.
handle mental run tough walking
Sure, it's going to be a long day, but I think it will be more mental than physical. We don't have to run around there tomorrow. So, while it's going to be tough walking around this course, we'll handle it.
bunker hit middle next putt saved
The 6-iron I hit out of the bunker was what saved the whole day. To be able to hit that shot, make the putt and go to the next hole, hit it right down the middle and make a birdie, two birdies in a row.
athletes beginning problem younger
I wasn't there at the beginning of the year, but I think the problem here is that we have to get athletes to come out and play. We've been shorthanded and had to play the younger kids.
