Q. Russell, just talk about your round today and give us some thoughts on it.
RUSSELL HENLEY: Yeah, hit it really well off the tee. Hit a lot of fairways. Feel like once I was in the fairway, I could attack, give myself some good looks, and also made a couple long ones. I think I made two 25-foot putts, which obviously keeps the momentum going in the round. But it was pretty steady. Wasn't perfect by any means. Could have been a little better with my wedges.
Yeah, just put the ball in the fairway today.
Q. Really good score. Were you surprised when you're out on the course to see Jake? Did you pay attention to him on the leaderboard?
RUSSELL HENLEY: Yeah, I knew he was 11 and Rickie told me he had finished when we were on No. 8, our 17th hole, and he had shot 59. Doesn't really surprise me. The place is overseeded now, and they've taken out some bunkers and made a couple changes. When the wind is down like this, I think it's definitely gettable.
But it doesn't matter what the condition is. Anytime you shoot 59, it's great, and it's unbelievable.
Yeah, good job to him.
Q. Was there a particular highlight for you out there today?
RUSSELL HENLEY: Let me think about it. Yeah, I birdied 5 today. Hit a beautiful 5-iron to about 30 feet and made it up and over the hill. Was just kind of icing on the cake of a really good round, so that was a good hole. It's a tough hole, and to walk away with 2 is really good.
