Q. 7-under today. Low round of the day. What was working well for you?
SEAMUS POWER: I had an interesting day. I didn't play particularly well, but I scored very well. It's something I kind of pride myself on. Made some good putts, hung in there when I wasn't hitting a lot of great shots. So all in all very pleased but I would like to kind of see a little better ball striking so I'll go work on that now for awhile.
Q. How difficult were the conditions out there? You saw a few different conditions during the day.
SEAMUS POWER: Yeah, it really was. The first five, six holes kind of rainy and the ball just wasn't going anywhere. Not much wind.
Then we got to the turn and then, for like an hour, hour and a half it really blew like pretty strongly there for awhile.
The last few holes was very pleasant.
So it was a day of, kind of -- it was one of those days kind of like back home in Ireland where you get a lot of seasons in one day. That's what it felt like. It's tough because the course was playing long. Even when you get opportunities in the fairway the greens because of the rain are soft. So trying to keep the ball close to the hole, it can be challenging.
But, yeah, I was able to make some putts to cover up some of the mistakes. So it was kind of a fun, adventurous day, but hopefully a little more straightforward tomorrow.
Q. Does it help that you grew up in these kind of conditions?
SEAMUS POWER: I think it does. You just kind of learn just to get on with it, to be honest. It's out there, it's raining, you have no control over it whatsoever. So you might as well just do what you can. Keep your hands dry and kind of get stuck in. I think that's what we learned growing up. We play in a lot of conditions like that. I don't know that we like it any better than anyone else, it's just we're just used to it and you learn some little tricks and techniques to keep yourself dry.
Q. Pebble Beach tomorrow. You talked about not hitting the ball the way you would like to today. What do you want to go clean up tomorrow?
SEAMUS POWER: Just a couple of misses. I know kind of what's happening. It's just tough to fix out there on the course. I'll go clean up some of those little simple things. But I love Pebble Beach. Obviously getting to play tomorrow, I think the forecast is pretty good. It's one of those things you kind of grow up dreaming about, so I'm really looking forward to it.
