crazy easy felt knowing mess players relaxed victories watched
I've watched tournaments where players had big victories and thought, 'I don't know how easy it would be or how crazy it would be. I felt comfortable and relaxed knowing there was no way I could mess up the tournament.
areas bit easy generally mapped mine months next rhythm schedule six sort three
I've sort of had a rhythm -- a bit like the tide. I don't usually go in areas of tournaments where I haven't really played. Everybody's schedule generally is very easy to select. Mine is probably mapped out for the next three so six months pretty tight.
certainly dose emotional feeling higher needed proves puts shows throughout twice winning
There needed be another dose of that throughout the years and there hadn't been. Winning now, twice, puts that emotional feeling at a higher level. Once is nice, twice certainly shows and proves to you that what you're doing works.
brilliant fine line looking
There's a real fine line here between looking brilliant and looking like an idiot.
bit blue easier proves twice winning work
It was just a little bit easier to relax. I think winning once or twice proves to you that what you're doing works, and it can work more than once every blue moon.
ask thrilled
Ask him. You should ask me if I was thrilled to be paired with him.
contention golf quality trying
Absolutely. What I'm trying to do is get better at having a well-rounded game. I know that that quality of golf is going to put me in contention more often, and that's really what it is about -- being in contention.
conditions definitely quite score somebody
Conditions were quite easy. There was definitely a 6-under score to be had out there by somebody and I was fortunate.
golf leading left means might percent tournament
There's a lot of golf, 25 percent of the tournament still left out there. I might be leading - but that only means that I'm leading.
few fun last putting
Putting hasn't been a lot of fun the last few months,
five near normal score stay
Five under is a normal score if you want to stay near the top.
accurate condensed fit golf hide holes last nine shots six tee
Everything is just so condensed here. You couldn't fit nine holes of golf on this place from last week's layout; not even that, six holes if you're lucky. It is very claustrophobic and small. So, you have to be more accurate. I haven't been accurate enough in tee shots and/or greens, but I've managed to hide that through scrambling.
guys happy plenty
There's probably plenty of guys happy to see him down the leaderboard for a change. I don't think you're going to get some, 'Oh, I'm so sorry. What a pity.' You guys can write about someone else for a change.
course eyes feels fit game sort
I sort of like the way my game feels right now. I like the course and I think the course will fit a lot of players' eyes this week.
