BETHESDA, MARYLAND
Q. You were the last player in the field this week. How does it feel taking advantage of that today?
HUDSON SWAFFORD: Feels great. Can't thank Billy McGirt enough for letting me in. No, I really saw it last week and just kind of building off of it. Was just kind of anxious. I was first-alt last Friday and I knew that, and I knew I was playing good, doing some good things and just wanted a chance. I love this place. It's a great golf course, tough. Can't get ahead of yourself or you can sort of make a couple bogeys quick. Just gave myself a lot of chances.
Q. Were you in the area when you got word?
HUDSON SWAFFORD: I was here. I came here Sunday night actually. I knew I was first-alt, and normally some guys withdraw early in the week, and especially being late in the summer. I know it's a small field but I still thought I had a pretty good chance to get in. And come Wednesday, I was thinking, maybe it's not meant to be. But like I said, can't thank Billy McGirt enough for pulling out.
Q. You said the course is playing tough. Were there any certain holes that posed any real problems for you?
HUDSON SWAFFORD: I made a couple bogeys out there, but such a demand on hitting fairways here and the rough is brutal in a lot of spots on par 4s. Just have to hit fairways and you have to be patient. There's a lot of pins and you can't go at them. The pins are receptive but still a good test of golf, the wind picked up all morning. All in all, I thought I had a really good game plan, stuck to it and didn't really get outside of it. Played solid.
