beat good great happened last positive round stay tried
I tried to stay positive and tried not to think about what happened here the last two years. All I wanted to do was play good golf. If someone had a great round and beat me, that's OK. I just didn't want to beat myself like I did the last two years.
beating cup goes heart last left nervous overly past putter stay sure thoughts
I wasn't overly nervous on the last putt, which is kind of a first for me. There were times in the past when my heart has been beating out of my chest. I just had two thoughts stay still, and make sure the putter goes through the ball. I thought I left it short, but it got to the cup on my last roll.
felt played
Kind of a disappointing finish. All in all, I felt like I played pretty solid.
battle coming good guys heat hit lead means special
That means a lot to lead wire-to-wire, which I've never done before. There's a special satisfaction in the heat of battle when guys are coming after you and you still hit good shots.
happened year
What happened a year ago doesn't have anything to do with what's going to happen tomorrow.
