calm eight finally match nine point possible stay trailing tried turning week
I think a very big turning point was seven, eight and nine because after the seventh, I finally was 1-up in the match and I had been trailing all match long. I just tried to stay as calm as possible all week long.

I think I will have a lot of fun next year playing all of these very good tournaments and then I'll probably turn pro after the British Open next year.

It feels great. It really means a lot, especially to win it here (at Merion). This is such a great golf course.

Obviously I made the right decision. I guess I'll be an amateur for a little while longer.

Seven, eight and nine was the big turning point. I finally took the lead after being behind for 25 holes and was really playing well.

We were both nervous today and it was tough. I was almost shaking at some points because The Masters and the U.S. Open mean so much.
almost change feet hole huge past putt somehow
It was almost 15 feet past the hole with a big, big break. And I managed somehow to hole that putt - which was a huge one - so it was a big, big change in the match.

I know, I know, but that's the way it is. But for sure I am not shaving it tomorrow morning. I guarantee that.

I hit the best shot of my life so far. I was really happy.

I changed my shirt because it was all wet because of the (morning) rain. I asked Scott for a magic shirt, and he probably gave me the right one.

It was by far my best round this summer, maybe ever under the circumstances. I really made some long putts.

It means a lot to me. I still have to realize it completely. I'm really, really happy to have this win and to have won it here, especially.
biggest coming expect great looking open outside tournament trip united
This is my first trip to a competitive tournament in the United States. So far, it's looking pretty good. I really didn't know what to expect coming in and probably didn't expect to get this far, but it's great to be here. This is the biggest tournament for me outside of the Open Championship.
