Quick Quotes


Q. Good playing today. You put yourself in a chance to win tomorrow. Just a comment on your round and what was working well for you today.

ANDREW NOVAK: I drove it so well off the tee. I was always in position to at least, at the very minimum, hit the green, even if I wasn't hitting a great shot. So as long as you're putting for birdies out here, staying on schedule, you can kind of get after the course.

Q. One bogey this week. You're leading the field in strokes gained around the green and scrambling. What are you seeing around the greens that you're able to save those opportunities when you are out of position?

ANDREW NOVAK: I've gotten lucky a few times with some good lies. But for the most part I haven't left myself in places where you can't get up-and-down. I've missed to the wide side of the green or left myself below the hole or at least chipped it to somewhere where I had a pretty makeable putt. Just kind of pieced my way around the course.

Q. Lastly, you mentioned walking over here the crowds have been awesome this week. Are you able to feed off of that?

ANDREW NOVAK: I love the energy, for sure. Absolutely. I grew up playing other sports. I love the crowds. I love what they're bringing. The Canadian fans have always been great. So, yeah, it's pretty awesome.
