Quick Quotes


Q. This was your first U.S. Senior Open. Can you take us through what this week looked like for you and your expectations coming in?

JOHN ROLLINS: It was exciting. I was looking forward to it. Anytime you get in major championships, obviously you're excited for the opportunities. I got the British Open last year, just turning 50 for my first one and enjoyed that, but I was excited to come here. I'd heard great things about this golf course and kind of the history here.

I was looking forward to it. I felt pretty good about my game coming in. I've been doing a lot of good things, hitting the ball well. Putting has been a little bit erratic, but I've been working on it and managed to roll it pretty well. I let a couple putts get away from me today, but overall it was a great week.

Q. You had to go through two stages of qualifying to get here. Next year you're going to be exempt. What's that --

JOHN ROLLINS: Yeah, I was kind of surprised I had to do the local, but I went through the local and then made it down just outside of Houston for the final and got through that. I'm happy to have a good finish. I played well, enjoyed the week, and yeah, keep moving on.
