DARREN FICHARDT: I started well yesterday, two birdies and I played horrendously after. So I thought I would just chip it around today and try and not overpower the course. I think I played a little bit too aggressive yesterday, and it cost me a lot of shots.
So if it was a six, I took a five, a soft five. I did the whole day just to create a little bit of rhythm and what-have-you, and with the way the weather was today with the wind, it actually worked quite well.
Q. You made seven birdies yesterday and made a seven at the last. How do you put that disappointment behind and you come out again and face a new day?
DARREN FICHARDT: Pepperoni pizza.
Q. And your wife is a psychologist.
DARREN FICHARDT: My wife's on the bag, so I need to behave. I was very disappointed yesterday because I put in a really good drive and got to the top of the hill and lost the ball on 18. Yeah, I wasn't very happy leaving the course yesterday.
But yeah, I've just got to reset. I saw a lot of guys made a lot of numbers out here. It's a lot of tricky holes where it can bite you and you make a soft bogey. I said to my wife this morning, we just play one hole at a time and no matter what happens on the hole before, target the next hole.
