Quick Quotes


Q. (No Microphone.)

CHRISTIAAN BEZUIDENHOUT: I'm struggling to read the greens, I haven't read them well this week. They're so perfect so it's difficult to read them. I just didn't see the breaks today and I'll do some work on the putting green now to sort it out for tomorrow.

Q. You're in a good position, you are still in the hunt, like what do you think about tomorrow's chances?

CHRISTIAAN BEZUIDENHOUT: Yeah, I mean I've been hitting the ball well so I'm just going to keep on doing that and give myself chances and hopefully the putter will warm-up.

Q. On your experience as an Olympian, this is something for you that's new, how has it been being with team South Africa, living in the village, how has it been?

CHRISTIAAN BEZUIDENHOUT: Yeah, it's been great. Living in the village has been great. It's a cool experience to be part of the whole setup there and everyone involved there, all the athletes from different countries and stuff and, yeah, it's been great. All in all my experience has been great so far and it's been a privilege to be part of team South Africa as well. So, yeah, it's been a great experience. The Japanese people are amazing. They're doing a great job hosting this in this difficult time as well. Yeah, everything has just been great.

Q. You're going to be back on the PGA TOUR for next week on wards?

CHRISTIAAN BEZUIDENHOUT: Yeah.

Q. So how are you going to do coming from Japan to kind of get back into that TOUR mindset?

CHRISTIAAN BEZUIDENHOUT: Yeah, I mean all of us treat this as a TOUR event almost. You still play against most of the players that you normally play with on the PGA TOUR as well, so the time zones and the jet lag is going to be difficult, but, yeah, everyone will adapt to it quickly and I'm looking forward to get back on the PGA TOUR.
