car dry fantastic finish motor run setup team today
Fantastic finish for the team considering we had not run a dry car setup before. Once we put a new motor in the car, we will be able to run up front. The chassis was working well today for us.
busy cars drive driving enjoy front learning love race typical weekend
It's going to be a busy weekend driving in two different races, ... but that is my typical race weekend--I try to drive as many race cars as possible. I love racing, and I enjoy learning as much as I can to get to the front of the pack.
car crew double efforts great handling hard paul pit proud small stops thank worked
The crew worked so hard to get this car on the grid. This is a small crew, so they all have to do double duty. They should be proud of their efforts this weekend. I'd also like to thank Paul Menard's DEI crew, who did a great job, handling our pit stops during the race.

bunch car changes crew experience gordon hard likes setup starting turn worked
The crew worked hard all weekend. We made a bunch of changes before qualifying, so we'll have a brand-new car for the race. We'll be starting at the back with the likes of Robby Gordon and Boris Said with a setup we haven't tested, so it'll be an eye-opening experience going into turn one.
against believe career cheated compete deep floyd guys kick knows playing raymond slightly thinks tiger tougher ways
I think in some ways Tiger has been slightly cheated in his career by not having tougher guys to compete against, like a Trevino, a Raymond Floyd and a Nicklaus. On Sunday, if Tiger went up against those guys, he'd know deep down, 'These guys are going to kick my butt if I don't play my best.' And I don't believe he thinks that way now. He knows if he's playing good, he's got it.

cars causing engine fall fighting flood lap pit problem shut top turning within
The carburetor malfunctioned, causing the engine to flood and essentially shut off on every restart, ... The problem also surfaced on pit road, so it made for an interesting day. On the long runs, we were turning lap times within the top 15 cars in the race, but on the restarts, we'd fall back 10 or more positions, so we had to keep fighting our way up from the back of the field.

The top American players have stunk it up.
bigger exposes game match stroke tendency toughest weaknesses win
Match play really exposes your character, who you are and how much of a will to win you have in your heart, ... It also exposes what kind of weaknesses your game has. If you have a tendency to get a little 'yippy' putting, it'll be an even bigger 'yip' than in stroke play. It's the toughest format.

We were very close. We hunted everything with hair and feathers together.
definitely effort fun pressure scoring worn
We get worn out, too. We get excited. We're not automatons. To me it's fun work, but definitely w-o-r-k is in there. And there is a lot of pressure on us to cover, and it's a hellacious effort to get the scoring right by Sunday.
