Q. Can you talk about the back nine, that stretch of 3, 3, 3?
HIDEKI MATSUYAMA: I bogeyed the hole earlier, and then I had a bad kind of a tee shot, but I was able to birdie that hole, and so just kind of kept going, so that was a good stretch.

HIDEKI MATSUYAMA: You know, I'm going to have some 3-putts throughout the year, so don't worry about it.
Q. Do you play good when you're mad? Do you find you play better when you make a mistake, whether it's a 3-putt or a bad shot?
