CHERRY HILLS VILLAGE, COLORADO
Q. How would you assess the week? RORY MCILROY: It was okay. I feel like I've played pretty well. I've given a lot of shots back over the past few days. I've given five shots away, on the 12th hole, for one. So, it hasn't been what I wanted. But, I'm playing solidly and hopefully, I can just put everything together next week.
Q. Is it fatigue at all? RORY MCILROY: I don't know if it's fatigue, because I don't know if I've lost concentration out there at all. It's not that. I've just given a few shots away. Hopefully, I can just keep it together a little bit more next week in Atlanta.
Q. Have you ever known anything as bizarre as that? RORY MCILROY: Two four putts on the same green? It's not my worst, I have five putted before. But, it's one of those things that at least I can laugh about it and move on.
Q. When was that? RORY MCILROY: Oh, it was way back.
Q. Was yesterday's one in your mind at all? RORY MCILROY: Over the second putt it was. I wasn't -- it wasn't -- I said to myself, I said, like let's not give anymore shots away to this hole. That was what I said. So, I maybe put a little bit too much pressure on myself to hole the second putt. On the third putt, I'm thinking, okay, you don't want to 4-putt again, and I actually held a decent length putt for a four putt, so. (Laughter.)
Q. Talk about your time in Denver. RORY MCILROY: It's been really good. The fans and the crowds have been amazing all week. I'm going to go watch the Broncos tonight, win, hopefully. So, yeah, it's been a great time. It's a beautiful area, and it's been a pleasure to play in front of so many people.
Q. Is there no choice but to kind of poke fun at yourself when something like that happens? RORY MCILROY: Of course, I mean, geez.
Q. Don't beat yourself up? RORY MCILROY: Exactly. It short of shows everyone out there that we do the same things as they do every weekend.
