Q. This is the fifth anniversary of the removal of the Eisenhower Tree. How have you seen that hole change?
KEEGAN BRADLEY: Well, the 17 hole is one of the trickier holes out here. You have to hit a perfect drive or you're going to have a lot of trouble.
Such an iconic hole. There is a lot of pressure to hit a good tee ball on that hole.
Q. Did you think they would replace the tree?
KEEGAN BRADLEY: I just think that that tree was so big and old and iconic I don't think they could. I think they narrowed it in with trees in the fairway, which makes the hole tough.
Q. They moved the tee back since that happened.
KEEGAN BRADLEY: Yeah, it's long. You got to -- like if it's into the wind I've hit 7-iron in. If it's downwind you can get up there with a wedge in your hand. Tricky hole.
Q. Did you ever hit the tree?
KEEGAN BRADLEY: I'm sure I hit the tree. I can't remember. I think everybody hit the tree at least a couple times.
Q. 20 rookies in this field; the record is 21. What advice would you give these guys starting out?
KEEGAN BRADLEY: I would try to go play with one of the champions, one of the guys that have played well here. I would really take the time to really enjoy and look around. It's such a stressful week, especially the first one. You can miss the accomplishment in your career to get out here.
I think you got to take a second is and enjoy being here.
Q. Looking back, what did you feel like of those things you didn't do?
KEEGAN BRADLEY: I was a nervous wreck so I wish I took a little more time to look around and see where I was and how far I had come in my career to be teeing it up in the Masters.
