Just the scoring part, which is the biggest part. I mean, I'm working on everything and at least the last week I've been hitting it really well. I'm hoping that it's all turning around. I really am.
I know where I'm at on the money list. I'm here to reach my own goals, play my own game.
I think I've become friendly with the golf course. I think with the rain, it totally softened the greens. And it seems like I play well when I can be more aggressive. ... It's kind of a ball-striking type of golf course, which I say is one of my strengths as well.
I think I played really well today, very solid overall; lots of fairways, lots of greens. I was really never in any trouble.
Hopefully, by the weekend, it will dry and it will play a little different.
I've got to prove to Catrin (Nilsmark) that I'm playing well, so maybe she'll put me out there in the afternoon. I was a little worried after the front nine this morning. I thought I might be sleeping late tomorrow morning.
The course is playing a lot longer today and the wind is difficult to judge, but on the other hand I didn't make a single putt,
They still have to earn their right here, they have to win.
There's much more than just the Hall of Fame, ... You've got Player of the Year, the money list, etc., that are important right now.
It just shows how you should never give up,
I really pulled out some clutch shots when I needed to. That's why I love doing this. Coming down the stretch and hitting those shots, there's nothing better.
I don't have sympathy for her. She's here, she's playing good golf and she's enjoying it.
I finished good down the stretch today, as I did yesterday. (On No. 18), I had to get it up and hope it landed softly. I've been working a lot on my bunker shots this winter, so I feel good about it. ... It would have been really hard if I were in the rough. I was glad I was in the bunker.
I'm more than pleased and today I feel great.
