Quick Quotes


Q. You never trailed all match. It was pretty decisive over some would say the favorite in the championship. How does that feel, and what did you have working out there today?

ANDREW VON LOSSOW: That was awesome playing Michael. First time meeting him, had heard about him, and I know he's a great player. Then seeing how he hits the ball and everything, it was awesome.

But otherwise it was just apply pressure. I didn't hit every fairway but I could muscle a few out of the rough. Then my caddie, my buddy Brian, he caddies here, Brian Roth, and he got me in the right spots around the greens. Just around here you have to be below the hole or just know if you have more room left or right of the holes. Had a few good numbers on the back nine where I could kind of hit some flighted shots and some full shots.

Q. This is your second USGA championship of the year; obviously your game feels pretty good. What about these USGA championships kind of fits your eye, fits your feel?

ANDREW VON LOSSOW: These are majors for me. The course condition, the setup, how events run, it's just world-class. And then you've got the world-class competition, as well. It gets the juices going.

Q. Obviously moving on to the round of 32. What do you got to do to keep this round going?

ANDREW VON LOSSOW: We've got to hit more fairways on the front nine or just overall. There's a little bit of spraying out there. Fairways and just hopefully get the right number and right spot on the greens because you don't want to be above the hole at Ridgewood.

Q. What can we expect for the threads tomorrow? Are we going to have something similar?

ANDREW VON LOSSOW: This is my loudest shirt. I don't know, maybe I'll go red shorts or something. I don't know if it's turning into a signature. I might go a little brighter. My all-time favorite outfit is the milkman. It's all white. But I don't know if that's going to come out.
