Q. I know the numbers will bear this out, but can you quantify how different the golf course plays from morning to afternoon now that you've done it both ways?
JORDAN SPIETH: Yeah, I thought it was -- I thought it was a scorable golf course-ish today. The ball was still going, but the greens were a little bit more receptive and I felt like maybe a few of the pins were a little more gettable.
I mean, you saw some numbers. Typically guys close out 5 through 9 with some birdies anyway and those guys did, the ones that were playing really well. I only got one on that stretch, which leaves me behind a bit. But yeah, it was certainly more gettable than yesterday afternoon.
Q. What's the stress level on a course like this, which is a little tougher, when you find yourself in the junk and different places. I know you're a genius at it, but is it a higher stress level at a course like this?
JORDAN SPIETH: It just depends. You just have to recognize if it's worth it or not. The percentages become quite a bit different when to go for it and when to take your medicine.
But we played, what, the PGA, Colonial was playing like this, the U.S. Open coming up, so it's almost like the norm now. It's not like we're going from an extremely scorable place right into this. So I think that's helped a bit.
