Quick Quotes


Q. Great playing, sir. What do you take from this whole week and where you are in your comeback?

WILL ZALATORIS: Yeah, I wasted three shots on Thursday, two on Friday, one yesterday, and none today. So I guess that's kind of a nice trend.

But overall very pleased. Back feels great. Just kind of hit some stupid stuff early in the week to shake off some rust.

Pretty nice to shoot 20-under. Josh my coach even said, he was, he's like, Just four rounds being healthy was kind of the goal this week and obviously you're way ahead of the curve.

Q. What's the definition of a wasted shot?

WILL ZALATORIS: Just a couple of missed 4- or 5-footers. Laid the sod over a couple wedges. Just a couple of 20-handicap stuff.

But, no, like I said, it was nice to see -- nice to be healthy, nice to see all the changes pay off.

Q. Was there any shot, like balls in the rough or above your feet, where you had any hesitation about just letting the club go?

WILL ZALATORIS: No, zero. It felt awesome. I even was going after a couple tee shots today pretty hard too. Lifting up my left heel to add a little distance.

Q. Doctor okayed the left heel move?

WILL ZALATORIS: No, about a month ago. So I figure if I was good a month ago I'm good now.
