Quick Quotes


Q. T-2 going into the final round, you have an opportunity to get it done tomorrow. Just where is your head today after playing Stadium, and how do you feel going into tomorrow?

JUSTIN LOWER: I feel okay about it. I feel like I played decent today. I did not score very well. Just playing the par-5s in 2-over, you just can't do that out here -- on any course, really, especially out here with the greens the way they are, it's hard to really score, and you can't really be as aggressive as you can on the other two courses. So just a little bit of an adjustment there, but other than that I feel pretty solid about everything.

Q. You've had a few opportunities now in your career under your belt where you've been playing in the final few groups heading into Sunday, just what have you learned about those experiences, and how do you feel like those will help you going into tomorrow and throughout your round tomorrow?

JUSTIN LOWER: Yeah, I feel like I can do it, it's just a matter of actually doing it, I guess, if that makes sense, as weird as that is to say. Yeah, I feel like I can definitely compete and, I mean, winning is hard, so many things have to go your way, and I think, am I three back or four back? Four back, I think. Four? Yeah, I mean, that's kind of a hefty margin there, but it's possible, I mean, the way the greens are and everything, a bounce here or there, it could happen. But, yeah, I'm going to go out and try to be as aggressive as I can, and I feel like as long as I can get it on the green I feel like I have a chance. I feel really good with the putter, so, and it's always been one of my strengths, so just try to get to on the green as quick as possible and go from there.
