Q. Sigh of relief here. Big exhale. You had the putter, bit temperamental an 16 and 17. What did you prove to yourself on 18 when the stakes were the highest and you were able to come through and get the win?

JT POSTON: Yeah, I told myself this is what you dream of. You got a putt to win on the PGA TOUR. Just try and forget about the last two.

Didn't make very good strokes on either of them. I told myself I've made a million of these and just do one more.

Q. What was the back nine like for you? Lead was one; then you push it to three; then you had to sweat it the last three holes.

JT POSTON: Yeah, wasn't quite as sharp with the scoring clubs today. It was nice to get a few on the back and take advantage of some of the birdie holes.

Kind of felt like a grind all day. I know I had a comfortable lead for the most of day but it never felt safe. Doug was playing great and I felt like I was kind of just plotting it around.

Q. Three-time winner on the PGA TOUR. I remember talking to you at Wyndham, young guy getting your first win. Then John Deere, now your third win, first as a father as you and your wife welcome Katherine Scott or Scottie back in March. What does it mean to you as you reflect on this?

JT POSTON: It means a lot. I worked hard. Worked hard for all three of them, but this one definitely is pretty sweet.

We've had a great fall at home. Had a nice break at the end of the Playoffs.

Yeah, just being at home and being a dad has been the greatest gift. I've absolutely loved it. Yeah, this is pretty sweet.
