I struggled, but I was fighting, i was working hard out there, keeping my score together and hopefully, this weekend it's going to be the same. It's going to be a grind out there. It's not going to be easygoing.

Its been 10 years since I last won a tournament, the nerves were there, and to have those nerves a little bit again in the last few weeks, you know, youve just got to put yourself in a position all the time to get used to it again and thats what Ive done and it finally paid off this week.

Played great the first two rounds and then didnt play all that bad yesterday, just let the course get the better of me, and today it was playing tough again. It was tough to get close, tough to make birdies, but managed to finish with four birdies in the last six holes or seven holes, so it was nice to pull it off.

Its an unbelievable course, its a golf course that hitting the fairways is the No. 1 priority, and even if youre on the fairway, sometimes you struggle to get close. Its a great golf course. This week it played tough with the way the wind blew.

It's been such a long time since I've last been in contention, who knows how my game is going to hold up? But I'm feeling good. My back is feeling great. So if the nerves can hold, just continue to make good golf swings and make a few good putts, who knows?

There's just no let up on the golf course and you have to hit quality shots all the way around.

I didn't hit the ball as good as I hit it yesterday definitely, today was a little bit of scrambling with everything really but I got it up and down quite a few times, and that kept the round going.

I'm a good listener.

Just about every player on tour has a bad back. It's just one of those games that does mess you up a little bit. You've got to keep looking after it.
