It all depends on the weather. If you get weather like we had on the second round there, then it's a really tough course. Now we are back to nice desert weather again. If you play well, you can shoot pretty low scores.

It was amazing to have a chance to win today. This pretty much says it all about golf. I was 4-under with three holes to go in the third round and thinking about where I'm going to spend the weekend. I was putting so bad. Then I made three birdies to finish on Friday. I missed a short birdie putt on No. 1 (Saturday) and then shoot 10-under after that.

You can mess up on this course if you're not careful. If you hit your shots in the wrong places, you're going to have pretty wicked putts.
