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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
