Quick Quotes


Q. Russell, let's start with the second shot on 18. How good did that look?

RUSSELL HENLEY: It was right where I wanted to hit it. Trying it hit up the middle of the green. Landed on the front of the green. I think I landed it a foot on, so that was really nice. That's a tricky hole or tricky second shot in there when you hit the fairway. And I've hit also a lot of bad shots on that hole, too, so it was nice to hit one to a foot and get in with a 3.

Q. You're sixth straight round on Tour sub-70. What's been clicking in your game?

RUSSELL HENLEY: Been making more putts. I feel confident on the greens, and I've been hitting it pretty much the same for a while, pretty consistently. So I just holed a few more putts I think and that gives me a little momentum.

Q. Coming in where you are in the FedExCup standings, does it maybe allow you to maybe be freed up a little bit more to try to make those birdies?

RUSSELL HENLEY: I think so. This is my fifth in a row, and I've tried to play the last few just so I can maybe the Top-125 and guarantee my good status for next year.

So for a while there I wasn't in the top 125. So now that I'm in the Playoffs, you know I'm just trying to compete the best that I can, so we'll see what happens.
