In better ball? That's best ball? That's when you use his seven or eight birdies every round? That's pretty surprising. But again, I've watched a lot of it, and I think he's ready to change all that.
First off, I didn't want Vijay, ... I chose to play with him because I enjoy him and the way he hits the ball. It was a great match all the way. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a great moment. Is he going to beat me eight of 10 times? I think so, but in a one-day try, I've got as good a shot.
For guys like myself and Brad, we?re not knocking on the door six or eight times a year, so when you see somebody like Brad punch through its nice to see.
We thought it was the greatest thing ever. He was not going to hit in this rain. I bet we waited seven or eight minutes, and he just stood there. Then they blew the siren, he marked his ball and we went inside. They washed out the round and the next day we re-paired in threes. I either didn't get him, or I had someone else with us so I wasn't as nervous about getting in his way.
I figure if I beat (Singh), there might be a small golden rainbow out there. And I did. You know, is he going to beat me eight out of 10 times? I think so. But in a one-day time, I have just as good a shot as anyone.
It was huge. I enjoy playing with him, so I chose to play with him if I could get it done.
It was great to see it go in. It was huge.
These two guys, they're going to win this thing several more times.
I'm going to play a lot next year. I'm definitely going to try to make that team. I knew I had to play well this week, and I played OK. ... The last three rounds I played pretty well.
I'm not going to not be disappointed if I don't play well. I expect myself to do well, but I'm not like, 'Oh, well.' I'm not in that category just yet.
I'm disappointed, but I like the way I played and it was a lot of fun.
I'm disappointed, but I like the way I played and I had a lot of fun. I'm certainly tired now, but I made it through 31 holes (Sunday) and hung in there for a long time.
I love it, I think it's just hard.
I'm one shot back. Those two birdies put me in a great spot.
