best groups guys nice
It's nice to do it that way. Fortunately for me, the guys in the first two groups didn't play their best and let me have this one a little bit.
days glad guy people phil saying shoots shot time took
When Phil shot his 62, a lot of people were saying it would be a long time before another guy shoots 62 out there. But it only took 365 days or so (actually 366). I'm glad it was me.
golf play guy
The qualifying system helps the top guys like Sergio Garcia, who play most of their golf in the U.S. They can rely on the world rankings and just play their four extra events [with the four majors and three World Golf Championship events counting as seven European events]. But for the other guys it's tough, and I don't know if that can be changed. It is a tricky situation.
donald finish golf good great knew luke nice played shot
I knew if I just played Luke Donald golf, it'd be good enough. It's nice to finish with a great shot like that.
air ball bit fly hoping looked mud
The ball had a bit of mud on it and I was just hoping it would fly straight. In the air it looked pretty good.
atmosphere brings crowd energy thrive
The atmosphere and the energy that he brings with him, with the crowd and stuff, I thrive off that.
fun game hardly lead obviously round second shared straight trouble
It was just one of those fun days. I hardly had any trouble at all. I've shared the lead after the second round for two straight weeks, so obviously the game is good.
colder longest shortest
Not much was going wrong. It's usually colder and wetter, and the longest of the courses. But with the weather, this is the shortest it has played.
bogey golf kept threaten today
Not much was going wrong. I didn't really threaten to make bogey today and kept it in play.
good hole kept telling
I kept patient, kept telling myself you need one good hole to get it started. Obviously, that was the ninth.
apart couple easy good hope missing short six start stick
I made six pretty easy birdies in the pro-am so I had to stick in there after the start and hope there were some more birdies around the corner. Apart from missing a couple of short putts, it was a pretty good round.
rounds
It was one of those rounds where nothing was happening.
apart couple good missing short
Apart from missing a couple of short putts it was a pretty good round.
believe chance great win
I've still got to believe that I can (win). If I play really great golf, then I've got a chance to win around here.
