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.
great happy wind
Exceptionally long. It's back to the bombers again. Still, the wind is pretty tricky. I'm in a great position. I'm happy to be where I am.
bit canadian couple eventually guess holes issue last letting press rather tried trying win
I tried to make birdies the last couple of holes and it didn't come out for me. I guess you can (attribute) that to pressure. I haven't been in that situation. I was trying to press the issue a little bit maybe, rather than just letting it happen. I think eventually a Canadian will win this.
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.
definitely far level par saying winning
Let's put it this way. I'll take level par right now. At the end of the week, I think it will be pretty good. I wouldn't be far off by saying it's definitely going to be single-digits, without a doubt, winning the event.
canadian feat great opportunity tour winning
For me right now, being a Canadian and having an opportunity of winning the Canadian Open, or any other PGA Tour event, would be a great feat at this stage,
fans winning won worry
I don't think I have to worry about winning the fans over at this stage. I'm not going to take anything away from Michael. He's won a Masters.
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.
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.
felt hit walk
It felt like a walk in the park, the way I hit the ball.
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.
scoreboard watching
I think I was watching it with Vijay. I was watching the scoreboard from the first hole, so I knew.
