finally good happened last strokes three
Finally I made three good strokes and it happened to me on the last three holes, 16 and 17 and 18.
couple escape good happen hopefully last par shape
I didn't really put myself in very good shape on 16, so hopefully I can escape with a par there and make something happen the last couple of holes.
changes fix head last list needed ready
Last year, I had a long way to go. I had a lot of different things I needed to fix to be ready for Augusta. This year, the list is a lot shorter, and the changes aren't as big. From that standpoint, I've got a head start.
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.
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.
basically biggest changed last swing task
Our biggest task was from '97 through '98, when I changed my swing to where it's at now. After that, it was basically kind of maintenance. I've been doing that the last two years a lot on my own.
anywhere ball birdie chance driver either ended figured good hitting holes last outright tournament win
I figured 19 (under) would either win the tournament outright or be in a playoff. I had to birdie the last two holes somehow. I had to take the chance of hitting driver (on No. 17) and put the ball anywhere up there where I could make birdie. It ended up as good as you could like.
colin hand healthy high hold hurting last ok rough says tournament
I know Colin is here but I don't know how healthy he is after hurting his hand. He says he's OK but I've said I was healthy before too. The last thing you want to do is come into a tournament like this one where the rough is so high with a hand injury. Hopefully, it will hold up and he won't have any problems.
basically figured four funky hand hole last took
Funky just basically took over. The last hole and I had a four-iron in my hand and I figured I could make four from there, but I just didn't do it.
absolute bad drive hit last perfect putt second shot wrong
The last hole, (I) had a perfect drive and just an unbelievable second shot in there, ... It was an absolute bad putt, it's not misreading anything. I just hit it way too hard. It was just a bad putt. Bad putt at the wrong time.
last shoot
Hey, if it works, it works. What did he shoot last week, 28 under? It works.
eagle great hole last putt shot trees tried
I had to play a great shot out of the trees and give myself a putt, which I didn't do, ... I tried to hole the chip, and I didn't do that. I had to at least try to make a putt so I could eagle the last hole, and I didn't do that, either.
eventually figure last proud turn
I eventually got there. That's one of the things I'm really proud of, that I'm able to turn it around like that, to figure it out, and it's something I couldn't do last year.
last nowhere three
It was a frustrating last three days. I didn't have it, I didn't play particularly well and consequently I was nowhere in contention.
