depends greens high land low spots top wind
The wind is blowing, swirling in the trees. On top of that, the greens are really inconsistent out there because the low spots are soft, the high spots are really firm. It depends on where you land it.
greens nice putt smooth
It's nice to putt on greens that are smooth again.
couple
I heard, 'Nice putts' a couple of times.
bunch
Not bad, huh? It's been a while, hasn't it? Most majors, you're not going to be making a whole bunch of birdies.
either height hit needed nice perfect shot
That was a nice little shot because I had to hit it a little easy, a little soft. Actually, it was a perfect 2-iron yardage. But I needed the height there. Either that or it was in the water.
depending driver great hit hitting playing totally
I thought (old) 7 was a great risk-reward hole. You could hit driver. You could hit fairway wood, or even iron, off the tee, depending on what you feel you could do. Now you're hitting driver where usually we're hitting 3-woods or 2-irons. It's playing totally different now.
areas ball close good hit pins positions pull putt shaped
A lot of the pins are in areas where if you pull up, you can hit the ball close with good shaped shots. Unfortunately I didn't hit the ball very good, so I wasn't in those positions and I didn't putt well, anyway.
couple golf happy hit loose played quality shots solid
I played solid today, ... I hit good, quality golf shots all day and I hit a couple loose ones, but more than anything, I was happy with the way I putted today.
course greens obviously soft
Obviously (I must) get off to a better start. The course is soft and the greens are receptive. You still have to get it done.
bunch chris goods guys played saying time wrong
Chris has been there in a bunch of tournaments. And, unfortunately, guys have come up with the goods at the wrong time for him. That's not saying Chris has played poorly. It's just that he's been there enough times when guys have played better. That's just the way it goes.
event home watching
This is like a home event for me, ... A lot of my friends were watching me play today.
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.
ahead couple early felt good hours lower number post posted shot shots wish
I felt if I shot 66, that would be a really good number to post early because I'm two hours ahead of the leaders. I wish I could have shot a couple shots lower and posted that, but you never know.
days except few last piece somehow tried weird
It was just one of those weird days where I just didn't have it. Somehow I just tried to piece it together, and I did for most of the day except for the last few holes.
