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.
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.
adds awkward bad character designer drives few good hit holes maybe middle shots side stance
I think a few of the holes you hit good shots and you find yourself on side slopes, but maybe that's what the designer had in mind. On 9 and 10, you can hit good drives down the middle and have an awkward stance in the fairway; I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. It adds character to the hole, for sure.
bad bit course hit quite shot
You don't have to hit too bad of a shot to be penalized quite severely. That's what makes the course very difficult. And that, coupled with a bit of wind, makes it tough.
close definitely felt game good judgment nicely played quite shot week yesterday
I definitely feel better about my game having shot 66 yesterday than if I shot 75 or 76. I felt like I played quite nicely during the whole week. It was very close to very good golf. That's why I like to play the week before a major, just to get judgment on how I'm playing.
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

apart couple good missing short
