Quick Quotes


Q. These are never easy, but take us back to that scene on the 18th green. What was going through your head at a time as you're trying to close out your tournament?

AKSHAY BHATIA: I mean, I was scared for my life. I didn't even really know what was happening. All of a sudden, four, five people come out running on the green. Yeah, I mean, it was kind of weird. But thankfully the cops were there and kept us safe, because that's, you know, that's just weird stuff.

Q. From a player perspective how long did it take for you to get your heart rate down and refocus or was that even possible at that time?

AKSHAY BHATIA: I mean, I was in shock and my heart rate was high. It got low and then once that kind of happened I was just freaked out, I just tried get over where everyone was. It was hard to do it, I think it was just weird.

Q. Overall, still a great week for you and everyone in our announce team has said you will learn from this. I know it might sting tonight though, what will you learn from this week?

AKSHAY BHATIA: I don't know yet. I mean, it was a good day and I would say if I birdie that par-5 that Tom and Scottie did, then I'm probably right there, but that was just one shot that I just didn't play aggressive enough.
