battle break certainly course golf great week
What a week to break in. It's a great golf course and you just have to go out and battle the weather. It certainly makes it exciting.
amazed casual course good greens held incredible relief shape water
I was just amazed at how good the course was, just incredible the shape it was in with all the rain. I only had to take casual water relief twice, and the greens held up very well.
advantage bit couple course courses excellent except extra felt golf last love middle played playing round sony totally week
Except for a couple of blips in the middle of my round (at Nos. 9 and 10), my day went well. The golf course is in excellent condition. Certainly, I felt it was an advantage to have played at the Sony last week. I love playing there because it's in Hawaii. I think it's an advantage a little bit just to have an extra week under your belt. But the courses are totally different.
commercial courses good low perfect saw score start totally winds
The courses are totally different. You can score on this course if the winds are low. It was perfect out there today. You saw that with all the low scores. I had a pretty commercial 63. It's a good way to start the year.
death great names thrilled trophy
It feel great. There are a lot of great names on this trophy and I am just thrilled to death that I can put my name on it.
bad hit poor shot tee week
Really, the only bad shot I hit the whole week was the tee shot at 17. I hit a poor shot. That's my fault.
ball death great hit thrilled
It is a great start. I'm thrilled to death to be here. I hit the ball really well.
bad ball hit played putter
I had one bad swing, ... I hit the ball well, but I played poorly. My putter let me down today, just went cold. I couldn't make it from anywhere.
control good key par putting speed tough
When it's windy it's tough to control your speed and that's the whole key to putting for me. The good putts you make are the ones you make for par. ... If you can make those 4- or 5- or 6-footers for par that's huge.
birdie days par pressure putting tough
When you're putting well, it really does take a lot of pressure off your game. It's not the birdie putts that are key. On tough days like this, the par putts that are key.
best came
Those were the two best putts I made all week, and they came at the right time,
couple nine three ugly wins
The three wins this year, they've all come different ways. It was a pretty ugly back nine today, but I holed a couple of putts when I had to.
allow best couple fred funk gave hope last next tournament win winning
I'll have to be at my best to keep up with these young guys. A win would be great. It would allow me to do what I want to do over the next couple of years. Fred Funk gave us all hope after winning this tournament last year.
ball early front good hit nice nine round solid weather
I hit the ball very solid today, especially on the front nine and got off to a good start. It's nice to get a good round in early because you never know what the weather is going to do here.
