birdie course happened history honestly last management playing smart somebody staying time tournament using win won
I can honestly say I never thought I would say that I actually win a tournament using my head. But honestly this weekend, I think I won this tournament playing smart golf, using course management and staying patient. I mean, somebody is going to have to find out when the last time somebody won a tournament making one birdie on the weekend. That may have never happened before in the history of golf, by the way.

best drive felt god hole iron knew last ran saved thank
I felt like it was a 36-hole day. Thank God we ran out of holes. I saved my best drive and my best iron for the last hole and knew I could two-putt from 6 feet. How embarrassing to lag from 6 feet.
almost felt good great hole last okay played round starting third today
Today I felt good. Actually, starting out I almost felt too relaxed. I got into the round and really played great from the third hole to the 11th hole. I played okay on the back, but birdied the last hole which was nice. Two real good ones there.

balls couple eight five hole last lost missed played shot thousand today turned weeds
I played awful, ... If there weren't 20 marshals on every hole and a couple of thousand spectators, I would have lost five balls today and shot about 84. I missed the last eight fairways and was in the weeds every hole. I turned an 80, literally, into a 71.
feels hit last sure work
I've hit a lot of putts the last two days. When it works, it sure feels good. If the claw doesn't work for me, I'll have to find another job.
last miss three
The first three holes, he couldn't find the course. But the last 15 holes, he didn't miss a shot. He's ready.
bad good hung news nine position rest shot space
The good news is I hung in there and only shot 2 over without making any birdies but the bad news is I was in a position to go nine or 10 under and put some space in between me and the rest of the guys,
inside
But only because I had to go inside and register,
fit time wife woke worth
What time did I get up? Two in the morning. My wife had a sneezing fit and woke me - it wasn't worth going back to bed.
blow harder maybe rain rest slim wind
I'd like to see the wind blow a little harder for the rest of the day. Maybe a little rain will be good, ... slim to none.
driver excited good half happens hit news quite scrape shock speed state
I am excited about tomorrow. I didn't hit my driver quite as well today, but I made no birdies and I'm in half a state of shock about that. That just never happens to me. I can usually scrape one or two in somewhere. The good news is I hit a lot of good putts. I just didn't read them right or my speed wasn't right or a combination of both.
bet birdie guys seven weekend win
One birdie on the weekend and I win the tournament. I bet that's never happened. But only seven bogeys all week. A lot of guys probably made seven bogeys today.
