Q. Obviously you're off to a hot start today. You must have been -- they mentioned going early and then a couple of drives just leaking and then the golfing gods just not smiling on you at the end?
RYAN FOX: Yeah, it was a weird day. I had a couple of great shots early. Played some of the hard holes on the front nine, you know, 3, 4 -- 4, 5, 6 pretty well.
And then a bad three putt on 7 and a couple of bad drives on 8 and 9. If the putter had worked a little better, I could have maybe got away with those.
I felt like I played great on the back nine. I flagged one on 10 and it just went miles. Bad shot into 12, but got away with it.
And then flagged one on 14. Probably everyone saw what happened on 17. That's one of the more unlucky breaks I've had on a golf course. It rolled in a crap lie and had no way of getting near it. Had a bit of a brain explosion on that putt and kind of ruined what was a really good round.
I think if I had not had that flag on 17 and probably not making worse than 4, maybe had a good chance at 3 and I'm still in the golf tournament. That kind of screwed my head a little bit.
Made a good bogey in the end up the last. I kind of don't know what to think. I felt like I played really good and shot 77.
Q. Tomorrow then obviously plenty -- you had that final day at the Masters. Turn it around and the golfing gods can smile and one of those can go your way?
RYAN FOX: Yeah, look, it's all there. As I said, if I had holed a few more putts through the middle part of the round it would have been really, really good.
I holed a couple more towards the middle and end of the back nine. Yeah, just got a little unlucky in places, but I definitely know I can put a score together tomorrow.
Yeah, it was nice to feel comfortable out there in that scenario, and just the golfing gods weren't overly kind to me today. I had a lot of good shots that didn't get rewarded. Looking at the scoring, it's pretty damn tough out there. It's beating everyone up this afternoon.
Hopefully I can go a little earlier tomorrow. The golf course might be a little softer, and I can put a score together.
