reality media people
Our region is going to be in chaos for a long time, ... The media's not playing it up to make it seem worse than it is. The reality is that it's as bad or worse than what you're seeing on TV. It's going to take a lot of help from a lot of people to get everybody back to living a normal life again.
almost goes golf happening knew nobody opposite says side time until watching wears
I was on the opposite side of the golf course, and there's nobody out there watching us play golf. You knew where she was the whole time. It was almost like a Tiger-type following. You know where she was on the golf course. That says a lot. I don't think that wears off until that goes away for some reason. I just don't see that happening any time soon.
across catch felt looking maybe nervous putt trying
I wasn't even nervous all day because I'm trying to catch the guy. All of a sudden, I've got a putt all the way across the green, big break, and I'm nervous because I'm just trying to two-putt. That's my mistake. But if I had been looking at it all day, then maybe I would have felt that way all the way through the back nine.
advantage came chip easy emotions front great green hit obviously punch run shot took trying
You know, I hit a great shot from where I was (in that divot). I was just trying to punch it down there and run it on the front of the green and it came out perfect, and it went just over the green. I had a pretty easy chip and obviously took advantage of the shot that I had and made it. A lot of emotions on that one hole.

I'll talk to some of the players along the way. It's something I felt an obligation to do. I think it's important to the future of that event. It's important to showcase it on television, the rebuilding effort. The more quality players in the event, the bigger the television audience will be.
