Q. Career low round for you today, tell me about your round, highlighted by an eagle and especially by a birdie there at the end.
SETH REEVES: Yeah, my game's felt good for awhile. I just hadn't been scoring well. It's just been nice to come to a place where I feel comfortable and, yeah, I just got off to, made a good putt on the first hole and then my swing felt good and I just drove it well and it's just one of those days where it just, everything kind of turns out the way you see it and even your misses are okay and so it was just one of those days but I feel like I'm a different player than I was a few years ago when I was out here, I'm swinging it totally different and that gives me confidence that I felt very comfortable knowing I was in contention or in good position and that's a big difference.
Q. You talked about being comfortable with this course, this is also where you have your top 10. What is it about this course that suits your game?
SETH REEVES: I don't know. I mean, I'm used to Bermuda greens, living in Atlanta. You have to drive it well out here and I'm more of a longer hitter but I can still, I feel like I hit it fairly straight. So but I feel like I just am comfortable with the Bermuda rough, Bermuda greens, it just feels like I'm at home, I guess and I can read the greens well and so, yeah, it's just, I can hit a lot of drivers as well off these holes, so yeah, just reminds me of home, really.
Q. You're a Georgia Tech guy and there's some Georgia Tech guys that have had some success out here. Have you had. Interaction with Stewart Cink or obviously much older than you, but Matt Kuchar as well, have they kind of told you anything about playing the TOUR or what to expect?
SETH REEVES: Yeah, well so with -- I grew up in the same neighborhood as Stewart. So he was kind of my idol when I was just a kid watching him do what he was doing. I mean he's been in the game for so long, but I have memories of watching him when I was a kid and I was way too nervous to go up and talk to him when I was practicing when I was 12, 13, something like that, but I finally got to know him, I followed his footsteps to go to Georgia Tech and then I've just gotten to know him over the years and consider him just a good friend and I've gotten to know Matt as well through Georgia Tech and I got to know Matt pretty well three years ago when I was out here, so, yeah, I mean they have certainly said some things here or there, but ultimately the advice I get is it's just golf, it's the same thing that you've been doing all the way up here and I mean there's been no really mental change for me, other than just it's been mechanical. I mean I just was in a bad place three years ago with my game and I'm in a much better place and that helps me to put good scores together.
Q. What specifically did you change? Did you change something in your swing?
SETH REEVES: Yeah, I mean it's --
Q. Everything?
SETH REEVES: Yeah, everything. I mean, it's just -- we're in the information age and like I've just always wanted to get better for so long and I've probably searched too much trying to get better and you just listen, sometimes you have good people around you, but they're telling you the wrong thing or they have bad information. So there's a lot more bad information out there than good and so it's just taken me so much time to filter that out. I'm still learning, trying to figure out what makes me, me as a golfer and that's when I think the best players in the world do they know themselves so well. Everybody swings it differently so I just had to work really hard to figure out what's functional for me. So that's really the difference is I'm starting to figure that out.
Q. I heard you say you have a new little fan out on the course today. So what's it like having your family out able to travel with you?
SETH REEVES: Yeah, it's different. I mean, I still don't really understand what it's like or it's hard for me to believe I'm a dad, but it gives you perspective. And the travel is seems a little tougher, so far, but I think you just get the hang of it. But all the guys out here, a lot of them have families and so that's really what I'm asking for advice for now is I'm asking any of these guys that I know just help me out with traveling with a baby and a kid and playing this game with a family now. So it's a whole new world and I'm trying to figure it out, but that's where golf's nice to just come out here and focus on something and then I've got a good support with my wife and my mom's here, my wife's parents are here, so they're helping, so couldn't really do it without them right now and eventually I'll learn how to make it work playing golf and being a dad on the road.
Q. Which players have been helpful in that regard?
SETH REEVES: Oh, man, some of the Georgia Tech guys, like Cameron Tringale. I talked to Brandon Hagy last week and this week. Jared Wolfe. I mean some of the guys -- man, I'm trying to think. I've literally asked everybody. Just because a lot of people know that we had our baby about two months ago, so they're even bringing it up just like, hey, how's it going, you know, how is travel this week. So just thankful to be doing what I'm doing and have the friends out here even that have gone before me with a baby and can shed some advice.
