It was great that Tiger won Augusta but we're at a new week now, obviously, everybody in New York is cheering for him. You've just got to keep battling and find a way through it.

I think it's actually a perfect set-up for next week. by Brooks Koepka

I think it's actually a perfect set-up for next week.

I wasn't nervous. I was just in shock at what was going on, when they started chanting D.J. on 14, it actually kind of helped.

Tell Harold Varner III what, the hour spent from number 11 to 14 was interesting, i just got stuck in a bogey train. I just made mistakes at the wrong time.

Im just glad I dont have to play any more holes, that was a stressful round of golf. Im glad to have this thing back in my hands.

Yeah, I'd like to see that lead grow as large as it possibly can, i still have to go out there and do what I'm supposed to do, keep putting the ball in the right spot and make sure that you don't make any double-bogeys.

That was one of the best rounds Ive played probably as a professional, this golf course is brutal.

I felt like I won this last year. Im playing good, it was great that Tiger won Augusta, but I mean, were at a new week now. ... Obviously, everyone is going to be cheering for him, and its going to be loud, especially if he makes a putt. Youve just got to keep battling.

When that putt went in on No. 10, that was kind of the momentum that set me, but I never once thought about the course record or anything. I was just trying to shoot the best I could. Simple as that. Just keep going and total them up at the end.

Didn't see the front nine, so I'm pretty pleased with the way I played, it's a bit different when you're playing it blind. Kind of don't know where you're going. Relying a lot on the (yardage) book. I never look at the book.

I just want to strike the ball well, obviously the goal is to win but if you don't you just want to feel good leaving for next week.

I think 18 is a whole lot closer than people think. by Brooks Koepka

I think 18 is a whole lot closer than people think.

I think you're definitely going to have to have a few more drivers in hand, being soft widens the fairways a little bit. I think it's definitely going to play into a longer hitter's hands.

I'm trying to treat it like a major( but) I'm trying to treat every event like a major, i've got a lot more confidence now than I've ever had. Sometimes the game comes easy to me.

This DJ [ Dustin Johnson ] thing I don't get, there's no fight, there's no argument, people like to make a story and run with it, it's not the first time there's been a news story that isn't true that's gone out.

It's a tragic accident, I'm heartbroken. by Brooks Koepka

It's a tragic accident, I'm heartbroken.

I didn't play well at all, we were all over the place. I'm a good putter. I just need to figure out everything else.

Any time you can win, it's special, and if you're going back to those places, it's cool, you're kind of reliving some of the shots you hit, and obviously you get a lot of positive memories.

It's not bad enough that I can't play, but it's not good enough to be 100 percent.

I think I've changed a lot since then, i was chasing, trying to get my tour card out here, and there's a big difference where I am mentally and where my game was at and where I it is now. The confidence level last year, I was a bit of a hothead. I only had seven spots to really get my card over here, so every shot everything it was super important for me.

I'm excited to get back here, i've been back for two weeks practicing, trying to get ready for this event. Things are going well.
