SPRINT TITLEHOLDERS CHAMPIONSHIP

KRIS TSCHETTER: I birdied -- I started out 10. I birdied 11. I knocked it up 9 feet with a 9-iron, from 121, made that. Then on 13, I had 60 yards; just hit a little sand wedge, L-wedge, knocked it up a foot. Made birdie. Then on 18, I had 4-iron in. I missed it just a little bit left and got it up-and-down for birdie. And then on 4, I hit a 9-iron from 135 up seven feet and made it. On 6, I hit a 6-iron from 146 and made a 20-footer. And then on 8, I hit a pitching wedge up 7 feet and made it. I missed a bogey somewhere, didn't I? I think on the front side. I bogeyed 16. Hit a -- oh, I hit my drive into the rough and had just a terrible lie and tried to hit a 7-iron out and left it short of the green and hit it, you know, pretty good pitch up about six feet and didn't make it.

KRIS TSCHETTER: No, I hit a bad drive into the (Laughs) was happy with my par. Hit a bad drive into the sand on the left and was right up underneath the lip, so I just had to try to get, you know, a 7-iron out of there and didn't hit very good shot. Hit it a little bit heavy, so had 230 and hit my 3-wood up on the green and actually left it just dead in the hole about 3 inches short, so....

KRIS TSCHETTER: I don't know. I think the purse (Laughs).

KRIS TSCHETTER: Yes.

KRIS TSCHETTER: I think so. I can reach a couple of the 5s, although today I -- the one par 5 on the front side that I could reach, I hit just a terrible drive and didn't have a chance to get there today. But it just -- I don't know -- the greens are so pure and I think they are real true and it is just a fun course for me to play.

KRIS TSCHETTER: It really kind of depends. It can nestle down there, but -- I wouldn't say it is overly long.

KRIS TSCHETTER: I think that it is the type of course that if the wind blows it can definitely change the golf course. If the wind is not blowing, and you start hitting it well, you get on the right quadrant of the green. You can really go low, so I think it rewards good golf and - I don't know - you just never know when that wind is going to pick up and then it can be brutal.

KRIS TSCHETTER: Yeah, that was kind of a jump-start for my year. I have really struggled with my putting for the last -- over a year, and I finally kind of figured that out and really feel like I am putting great, which hasn't been for a long, long time. So it makes the game a lot easier, you can make a few mistakes. In the past, if I didn't hit it just absolutely perfect, it was real easy to go out and shoot over par because I really wasn't making any putts. I just feel great about my putting right now and feel like I am hitting the ball fine. So I was really looking forward to this week and felt like I was really ready to play.

KRIS TSCHETTER: I have been working on my stroke for a year trying to figure out what was going on and I felt like my stroke was getting better and better and I still wasn't making any putts. I just made a little adjustment in my setup that made it easier for me to lineup and all of a sudden, "hey, I can get the right line" and I feel like everything is going in.
