Quick Quotes


Q. 7-under, eight birdies, one bogey. If we can get some comments on your day.

DUSTIN JOHNSON: Yeah, I thought it was -- played really nicely. Obviously bogeying the fifth hole is not very good. Then I drove it right in front of the green on 11 and didn't make birdie. Other than that, I felt like I played really nicely. Had a few lip-outs, but it was -- all in all I rolled the putter really nicely today, so I was happy with that.

Q. You keep talking about you feel like it's close, and we're certainly not going to doubt you since you know what you're doing, but do you need results for your own validation to get a little more belief, I guess?

DUSTIN JOHNSON: Yeah, I mean, good rounds like today help. Yeah, still not hitting my irons quite as well as I was when I was playing really well. It's close, like I said. It is. I'm hitting good shots, but just not enough good ones.

Q. Why aren't the irons there? I know you don't know either, but it's not like you're not working on it.

DUSTIN JOHNSON: Yeah, it's gotten better. It's gotten better for sure.

Q. Did you call Butch today?

DUSTIN JOHNSON: I sent him a message. I did.
