conditions grind
It's a grind out there in conditions like this,
fun good greens hitting percentage
It's been a lot of fun hitting a lot of good shots. Hitting most of the greens and making a real good percentage of those putts - that's a good combination.
dream great opportunity played tournament win
It's been a dream to win the first tournament of the year, some year. I've played for 30 years and haven't done that so this is a great opportunity for me.
lead normally shot
I shot a 65 with a three-shot lead and normally that would be enough.
birdie conditions hit perfect shoot start
The conditions were perfect for scoring. It was there to be had if you hit the shots. I got off to a ho-hum start and then I got it going (with a birdie at the par-5 fourth). I thought someone could shoot 59 at the start of the day.
