hit matter shape shot
Overall, it was just a matter of getting out of my own way. Every shot this week, I was able to see the shape of it and then hit it the way I wanted.
close hitting matter nobody seeing shot worrying
I think I did that this week, put myself in another gear. It was a matter of seeing the shot and hitting the shot and not worrying about it because... nobody was close to me to worry about it.
burden difficult focus playing shots trying
It has been a big burden on me trying to play golf, ... It was very difficult for me to focus or even see shots that I wanted to play because there are other things that were playing in my mind.
british distant focus golf hard last next open playing shot standing
It's hard to focus and play golf. It's next to impossible. When I was playing the British Open last year, I'm standing over every shot going, 'What am I doing with this golf ball?' I was in a distant zone.
game poorly seeing shots watching
It was heartbreaking watching them play as poorly as they did, unfortunately. But I just got on with my game and seeing the shots I wanted to hit.
four maybe shots tougher
This is probably three, maybe four shots tougher than Hamilton.
ended exactly good hit shot switched wind
It was only a five-iron. It wasn't a three-iron or two-iron. I hit the shot exactly how I pictured it. The wind switched on us. It ended up being a good eagle.
bit british few gone onwards open picturing shots worked
We worked on a few things that we've been working on from the British Open onwards with the swing, ... What we've done from there is incorporate a little bit more shot-making, picturing shots a little bit more, which I had completely gone off of for part of this year.
consistent overall package
Overall it's been very consistent ball-striking and the whole package has been very good.
held overall
Overall I held it together. I just couldn't make enough birdies.
bit either enjoy goal majors relax win
I think I get to relax a little bit more now. It's a player's goal to either win majors or play in majors. I'm going to enjoy it.
felt hit walk
It felt like a walk in the park, the way I hit the ball.
scoreboard watching
I think I was watching it with Vijay. I was watching the scoreboard from the first hole, so I knew.
ball hitting
I'm hitting the ball very well right now.
