Quick Quotes


Q. Another nice win today. How would you compare the first two matches?

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: I played a lot better in the first one. Controlled the ball better, hit the tee ball a lot better. Hit it okay today off the tee. Just compared to yesterday it was a lot worse. Going to go to the range and iron out a few things. Going to be playing Tom tomorrow who has got nothing to lose so got to clean this up.

Q. Anything major with the swing or just little small things?

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: Small stuff. Stuff I'll still getting comfortable with. The wind was a slightly different direction today on some of those holes, so just was a little uncomfortable and made a couple bad swings. But was lucky to have a big enough lead that I was able to pull through.

Q. What was the most challenging part of the win today? Seemed like it was a little gusty.

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: Yeah, it's funny, the weather, there's no wave, you're just playing the guy you're playing. So rain, wind, shine, it doesn't really matter because you're going to be out there with whoever you're competing against and that's the beauty of match play.

Q. You control your own destiny tomorrow. Is that a better feeling where you know if I go out and win everything's taken care of?

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: Yeah, that's where you want to be. I don't think I've been in that situation in this event before, so looking forward to it.
