champagne girlfriend led night played rest rose song turned wrote
I blindfolded my girlfriend at night and led her into the woods, where I had a blanket, rose petals, champagne and candles. I played a song I wrote for her, and the rest of the night turned out great.

One of those guys that shot 5-under (Thursday) will probably shoot 5-under again.

It would be nice to be playing with him and us both show up with red and black on.

You might miss three fairways the whole day, but you can't advance it more than 30 or 40 yards.

Depending on how the course plays tomorrow, I'll feel prepared and ready to go.
along families few justin played quite somebody
We know each other quite well. Our families get along well. When you play with somebody for the first time, you don't know how to react. I've played with Justin quite a few times and you know how he reacts and just go out there and just have fun.
golf
I like it. It's an old-style golf course.
bad close missed
I missed the fairway on No. 1 and was only able to get it up there close to the green. You can get some bad lies.

it helps with school and living in New York.
open
I just feel it's something I should do as the Open champion.
cut felt hit swing tried
I probably got a little greedy. I felt really comfortable with the swing and just tried to hit a little cut out there.
par struggle
I didn?t struggle to make bogeys or par even. They were just all tap-ins. It?s just one of those rounds.
close days good hit swing though took
It was just one of those days where even though the swing didn't feel as good as it could have been, it was good enough to hit some close shots. When I had the wedges in my hand, I took advantage.
either good hard hit hung par shot stay struggled tough tried trying
It was just one of those things, and I just never could get comfortable with the shot I had. I was either trying to hit it too hard or too easy. It's just tough to get it close, but I hung in there and just tried to stay positive. The good thing was I just struggled to make a par or bogey.
