Q. At a course that you said there's such a fine line between a great round and a disastrous one, how good is 14-under over your last 36 holes?
ADAM SCOTT: That's good playing around here, for sure. Especially yesterday in the wind I played really, really nicely. I was so disheartened after Friday's round, my putting was just so bad. I know a lot of guys have struggled with grain and stuff this week. But just felt like I'm playing good and I'm just not getting anything out of it. So it's an incredible game because two days later I feel really good about things sitting here talking with you.
Q. Contextualize that putter for us. The first two rounds you were losing over two strokes on the field putting. You gained a considerable amount, today especially. What did you tweak and tell the truth because if you don't Trevor Immelman will tell on you.
ADAM SCOTT: Yeah, I mean, I think Trev is as frustrated as me. Thankfully, he cares so much. Yeah, he noticed a little something with my left elbow I think for quite awhile that we just haven't really focused on it. It gave me something to focus on and probably improved my path and face and all the things that you need to do without really having to stress too much about it. So a few more went in, thank you, Trev. It's a nice feeling, that's for sure.
Q. I know it's going to be important for you to keep that rolling as you head into your 99th consecutive major start, and then 100 at Shinnecock. Listen, we talked about it a lot, how much it means to you to win another major in your career. How do you maintain this level of play, maintain your health, what does the mentality have to be as you roll into a really significant part of the season?
ADAM SCOTT: Yeah, I'm feeling good about all those things, it's all positive stuff. To win a major I'm going to need to put four days together, not just a weekend coming from behind. I feel like my game is there. I'm doing all the things that I think I need to do to be in that kind of condition. So next week is important to keep this confidence going and hopefully arrive at the U.S. PGA full of confidence and four good days and you just never know.
