Q. How does it feel being back just playing?
ALEX NOREN: Alex Noren. It feels very nice. It's weird not to play for so long. I've been looking forward to get some nervousness and some adrenaline flowing and just be a little sharper.
You go around practicing your short game for a while. It's not so inspiring in the end when you don't really know when you can come back.
Finally, the last two weeks, it felt good for two weeks in a row. The hamstring is holding up.
Q. What do you expect from yourself moving forward the rest of the season?
ALEX NOREN: I expect that I'm going to improve and just be a little bit sharper. It feels good. The game felt pretty good today, a little maybe not all there in all the aspects of the game. I'll take a 3-under.
I know scoring is pretty low today, but I still hit some quality shots out there, which feels good.
Q. What's the plan going into tomorrow?
ALEX NOREN: Just to keep doing the same things. It's nice to have my caddie back. He helps me a lot, like coaching-wise as well. Same thing tomorrow as today.
