Quick Quotes


Q. As you're heading to 17 down one, what were you thinking?

ANEKA SEUMANUTAFA: I didn't really think about it, to be honest. I kind of just stuck to what I know best, just stick with my game plan. Coming into 17, hitting that shot, kind of moved the chains for me coming into 18. That approach shot also got me momentum into the last putt.

Q. How far out were you on the approach there on 18?

ANEKA SEUMANUTAFA: 191, playing 200, so I hit a 4-iron up there.

Q. Heck of a shot, and you put it to --

ANEKA SEUMANUTAFA: Like six feet.

Q. You've been in match play I think the last four of these, so this is no new spot for you. Are you confident heading into the round of 32?

ANEKA SEUMANUTAFA: Yeah, definitely confident. The cameras, people don't really distract me. I'm feeling pretty good about my game, where it's at right now.

Q. How does it feel to knock off the defending champ?

ANEKA SEUMANUTAFA: You know, we're really close friends, and we kind of just played as friends today. I didn't really think about defending champion or nothing. We just kind of played like a college event.

Q. Little different weather out here today; what were the conditions like?

ANEKA SEUMANUTAFA: Yeah, it was cold and windy and then it got hot. So all the elements in one day. I kind of just stuck to my game plan, figured it out on the golf course as I went on.
