Quick Quotes


Q. Just curious about your mindset going into tomorrow knowing you've made up a lot of ground but still have some work to do for tomorrow?

BRIAN HARMAN: It is what it is, man. Just got to go out there and try to play a good round.

I had it today. I played great today. Just putted -- I had my worst day of the week putting. It was just really frustrating. Had a lot of good looks out there.

It's been a tough year. Hasn't been awesome. It's just been kind of one thing or the other. I feel like I'm playing some good golf.

Hopefully it will pop tomorrow. If not, get an extra week at home with the family.

Q. Do you focus tomorrow on the round at hand or find yourself looking at the leaderboard or some of the projections?

BRIAN HARMAN: I always look at the leaderboard so I'll know where I'm at. Not that it helps, but I'll know where I'm at. That won't -- I'll be trying to shoot it super low and trying to win the golf tournament. That will be my goal. We'll start with that and see where it takes us.

Q. Can you speak to how important it is to make that top 50 cutoff and everything it unlocks for last year?

BRIAN HARMAN: You're asking some great questions. I wasn't thinking about it. Top 50 is great. I'm in all the majors next year, which helps.

Yeah, that Signature Series, it's where you want to be. It's where the best golf's played. I'd love to have a chance.

Q. I've seen from a couple people in the last couple weeks kind of living and dying over every shot because they know they're on a bubble, but it's hard to play golf that way. So how do you not do it?

BRIAN HARMAN: It's really hard. Kind of wherever you are on TOUR, you're on some kind of bubble. You're either trying to make the TOUR Championship or you're trying to make the Presidents Cup or you're trying to make the top 50 or you're trying to keep your card or trying to win for the first time.

Yeah, I think that's what makes our game so great. I think that's what's super interesting about golf is there's 15 different golf tournaments going on out here, not just the guy trying to win. I think that's what we're trying to do going forward because we all care a lot. I mean, I care a lot. I care a lot about making the top 50. I care a lot about making the top 30. I care a lot about winning. I care a lot about making teams.

It's hard not to think about that stuff, but at the same time, you think about it all the time anyways, so you kind of get used to it.
