beach bunch few golf good likely pebble players playing separate tiger unheard
To separate yourself from a bunch of other very, very good players -- more than likely playing some really good golf -- is going to be very difficult. What Tiger did at Pebble Beach a few years back was unheard of.
ball club drove face golf good hit middle solid
Just good solid golf all day. I drove the ball well, hit the middle of the club face a lot of times...and here we are.
anyone double excellent gets golf
If anyone gets to double figures, that would be excellent golf.
amount australian difference golf huge
Greg has done a huge amount for Australian golf, ... I don't think he can make a huge difference now.
conditions golf good solid trying
Today, was just good solid golf all day, more trying conditions than yesterday, and I just made some good putts today,
course easy golf tough
Any golf course should play easy with no wind. This course is tough without wind.
bunch golf good level likely playing separate
That's just the level of play today. To separate yourself from a bunch of other very good players, more than likely you're playing some really good golf (or) it's going to be difficult.
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.
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.
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.
golf thinking skills
I certainly don't think adrenalin coursing through your veins, is going to help with the fine motor skills of golf.
golf player personality
I always say golf's a really good exposer of a player's personality.
birdie chip difficult fortunate four good green nice score shot sneaky thinking three walk
The par-five I made a nice little five-foot birdie putt. That was a sneaky one down the hill. Then I chipped in from over the back of the green on six. It was a very difficult chip and it went in. That was a very fortunate shot there because I really was thinking four would be a good score to walk away with, so three was a bonus.
close doubt future home kept
We kept them close on the Americans' home soil. There's no doubt in the future we can take this thing out.
