It feels great to be, you know, in competition. You know, I didn't play as well as I wanted today, but I felt like I played really strong during the back, the last couple of holes. Hopefully, I will follow through tomorrow. Who knows?
I felt a little nervous off the tee, ... But being nervous like that can be a good thing.
I feel really stupid saying this. I ate too much. It caused a little indigestion. Every time I breathed, it felt like barf was coming out.

The positive energy I received from the crowd was awesome. I felt like I basically knew half of the people in the gallery.
I was kind of disappointed on that hole, ... I felt like I should have made an eagle there, but I was still happy with the birdie.
I'm very relieved I got through today, ... It was really tough out there. It felt good after I made that putt. I have a lot more days to go, so hopefully I can keep that trend going.
After the sixth I felt a little bit more confident and it's a good start for tomorrow.
I felt really good on the front nine, but just couldn't get anything going on the back nine, ... I still finished under par, so I guess that counts for something.
It was very important for me to make that putt and I'm very glad that I did. That helped me a lot with momentum, making birdie on the next hole and makes me feel good about my round.
It was a little bit different today, ... But it was pretty fun getting those butterflies in your stomach, your heart thumping.
I've been lucky to have only two in 11 years. A caddie has to learn to adjust to you. If he only gets 24 hours to do it, that's pretty hard.
Brian was with me Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday but the chemistry didn't really work,
I usually see him in the crowd. It's nice to see him get all excited when I play well.
