Hit the ball pretty solid. Haven't played a lot of golf this year, so was really unsure of what it would be like. I've been playing pretty well lately, especially hitting the ball solid.
I'm excited to see how I'll hold up under pressure. I'm swinging as well as I've ever swung the golf club, so we'll see if that holds up.
I had very low expectations. Honestly, I think I had 11 rounds of golf the entire year in before this tournament, and I had hit balls maybe four or five times.
If you take my entire golfing life, my favorites are the older courses, the more traditional and the more authentic.
I think Tahoe is one of the hidden gems in the country, and I've played a lot of golf around the country. You can't beat the smells and the clean air and just the way it makes you feel.
There are some guys out here that can really play golf, but it has not been their focus for that long.
I used to read every golf magazine front to back; I was addicted to Golf Channel, read Rotella, read every golf book.

The team the last couple years as taken a pounding emotionally,
You add him, and it's 70 catches, boom,
But that's not me. I feel most alive when I'm being challenged, when there is pressure involved. I felt like I was dying as a football player. And I always felt that I've never met my potential as a football player in this league. I was hoping to get one more chance. I didn't think I would.
I wouldn't wish that upon my worst enemy,
