Q. Seemed like a lot of people were out there struggling. You weren't today. What was working so well?
PETER MALNATI: I don't know. It was great. I got to play eight holes before the weather got bad. So that was nice. Pebble's, it's hard if you're out of position, but it's gettable if you're playing well. I've been playing pretty well this week, which is nice. Then made the turn and made three birdies into the wind on 1, 2, 3. Which 1 and 2 are kind of protected, so that's nice.
I don't know, I mean, golf's so hard and it's been so hard for me, but it's clicking a little bit this week and it feels really good.
Q. Are you disappointed that the momentum was stopped?
PETER MALNATI: Yeah, I mean, yes and no. Like I want to be out there and like I hate for this tournament that this is going on. Because the pro-am portion is such an amazing part of this event. It's part of what makes it special.
So I hate that for the tournament that they're going to have to cut the pro-am part short. So that stinks.
But honestly, like where I was, I was on the 4th green, I was getting ready to go play 5, 6, 7, into the teeth of that wind, so who knows. Like, I wish that we were still out there playing for the sake of the tournament. I think it would be great. But for me maybe it was a good break getting out of there at the time that I did. I'm not sure.
Q. You're one of the guys that, you probably heard this before, lead the TOUR, one of the leaders in strokes gained attitude out here. How important is a good attitude with the conditions that you had today and will likely have tomorrow?
PETER MALNATI: It is important, for sure, just to not be miserable. Like, who knows. I mean, playing like that you just have to play well whether you're grouchy or whether you're optimistic, it doesn't matter, you have to play well.
I'm going to always err on the optimistic side because I think I have more fun that way. It's just part of my nature anyway. So I don't know that that really helps that much if you're not playing well, but at least I'm not going to be miserable out there either way.
