home work
I'm not going to work on anything, ... I'm going to go home and relax.
ball bit feet four low miss past power putt seems sure threw year
That putt -- I've had that putt it seems like for three, four years, and I miss it low every year and always power it three, four feet past the hole, ... I made sure I threw the ball out there a little bit more
last major nice ready starting year
It's nice starting off the year with the checklist not as long to get ready for Augusta than it was last year when I had to make some major changes. This year it is just fine-tuning which is great.
nice
It's nice to see that I made a comeback,
greens nice putt smooth
It's nice to putt on greens that are smooth again.
easy exactly leave short trick
It's not exactly easy to make the short ones out here this week, ... The trick is, not to leave yourself too many of them. For the most part, I've been able to do that.
ball close couple feet hit
I didn't hit the ball very close and when I did, I did make a couple of putts, but other than that, I was 30, 40 feet just about every hole.
against compete enjoy field nice players
You have the top-end players playing, which is great. It's nice to have a field like this to compete in. We always enjoy it, going against the best, and it's going to be a lot of fun.
ball certainly cheering except helped hit jim played putt
Jim's putt first certainly helped in my read, ... I didn't really do much except for read putts and have the pom-poms out, just cheering him on all the way. Jim played unbelievable golf. He hit the ball beautifully.
ball game hit irons low rely
It eliminates a lot of guys. If you hit it low and rely on your game to get the ball out there that way, and hit your irons not that high, you're going to be struggling.
against basically beginning build condensed event excitement exciting fans game happen players playing top ultimately
I think it will be exciting for us as players ? with basically one big event every month, from beginning to end. The whole idea is to build excitement in the game of golf. By having more of a condensed season, I think that you'll see more of the top players playing against each other in the same fields, and I think that's ultimately what the fans want to see. We as competitors want to have that happen as well.
ball flatter hit irons low struggling
It eliminates a lot of guys, yeah. If you hit it low and hit your irons not so high, if you have a flatter ball flight, you're going to be struggling there.
good shot
I thought if I shot 63 today, it would be a pretty good number.
couple early finally missed nice nine stayed turned
(I) just stayed patient. I missed a couple of putts early in the round, but finally got it going on the back nine. I made some nice putts on the back nine for birdies as well as par. It turned out to be a really nice day.
