Quick Quotes


Q. Marathon day; you were five back starting the day, got on that run. A whirlwind day. What are your emotions right now about how the day went?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Yeah, I'd say I'm a bit frustrated. I didn't really finish the way I wanted to, but I gave myself a good chance this week. Played a lot of solid golf, did a lot of good things. Obviously I'm a little bit frustrated I think with how I finished, but outside of that I gave myself a good chance, just wasn't able to close.

Q. What made you feel so good earlier today?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I just got off to a good start. The greens here are pretty true, and I hit some good putts really and was able to hole a few and get myself in position. Feel like I did a lot of stuff well today, I just didn't make enough birdies, a few too many mistakes.

Q. Anything different about having that marathon 29 holes or so to pace yourself, eating differently or any --

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Well, it was a bit unexpected. We turned, and they had told us this morning they were unsure whether or not they were going to re-pair. You get into scoring, and they're like, hey, you're on the box in 10 minutes, so go inside for food. A lot of the to-go food is gone because everybody has been doing the same thing, and try and eat something as quick as you can and get out there on the course. So it was a bit of an adjustment, but like I said, I got off to a good start this afternoon and gave myself a chance.

Q. Had that three-peat been on your mind at all?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: No, that didn't really matter.

Q. Is there anything that you learned about yourself this week or are particularly happy with that you can take with you or not necessarily?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Anything I learned about myself? I gave myself a good chance. It was another solid tournament. I wish I would have finished a little better, but outside of that, I gave myself a good chance this week and proud of how I fought.
