Quick Quotes


Q. So you complete nine holes before we stopped play. How did you have to reset today?

KURT KITAYAMA: Just like I was playing 18 holes again, I guess. Just did my full warm-up routine. Kind of just treat it as a normal round.

Q. Some birdies out there as you were finishing up. Can you talk me through the last stretch of golf?

KURT KITAYAMA: Yeah, I mean, it's playing really soft with all the rain. So you can kind of be aggressive to a lot of the pins. Normally when it's -- like Spyglass is tough. If you short side yourself you're in a bad spot. But with 'em being soft and a little slower it wasn't too bad out there.

Q. What are you pleased with most about your game this week?

KURT KITAYAMA: I think my putting. Last couple tournaments I definitely struggled. This week it's starting to feel a lot better.

Q. Have you been in a situation like this before with the stoppage of play overnight going into another round?

KURT KITAYAMA: Yeah, definitely. You get bad weather occasionally. I don't think I've ever had a Monday finish. That's kind of what we're looking at now. So that's definitely different.

Q. This turnaround time, how will you reset and get ready for the next round?

KURT KITAYAMA: Just kind of hang out, relax, get some food. Then I'll figure out when I'm going off again around 2 or so and just full warm-up again.
