U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPJune 20, 2015Dustin JohnsonUNIVERSITY PLACE, WASHINGTON Q. Talk about the round. Happy with at least getting out of trouble there on the last few holes and keeping a share of the lead? DUSTIN JOHNSON: Yeah, I thought I played really well today. Obviously the setup was very difficult. The golf course is playing really firm and fast. It's just tough out there. I played really well today, I thought. A few three-putts. Other than that I felt like I putted it well, just missed a few short ones. I made some putts, too. But really could have been a good day today. Q. Could have been a good day but for a few holes? DUSTIN JOHNSON: It's still a really solid round. Even par out there this afternoon is a good score, as you can see. And I thought I played solid, hit a lot of good golf shots. So I'm very pleased with the way today went. Q. Ready for tomorrow? DUSTIN JOHNSON: Yeah, I'm very excited. I'm right where I want to be. I'm in position. If I play well tomorrow we'll see what happens. Q. How difficult is it to control your emotions out there, especially after 13? DUSTIN JOHNSON: I knew I was playing well. I really didn't do anything. I made a bad swing with an iron, that was really the only bad swing that I felt like I made today. And I knew if I hit it over there where it was going to go and it's going to be a tough bunker shot. But I got it back on the green and then I just three-putted. I hit a good putt, too, even on the one I had for bogey I hit a great putt, it just lipped out. And it's really easy to make bogeys out there or even a double, with the greens as fast as they are and as firm as they are, it's tough. Q. What iron was that? DUSTIN JOHNSON: That was on 13 I hit a 7-iron and I just made a poor swing, hooked it, hit it too far left. Q. What did you learn from your 54-hole lead in 2010 that you can take into tomorrow? DUSTIN JOHNSON: I've been in the situation a few times so I know how to handle myself. I know what it takes to get it done. And tomorrow just need to go out there and focus one shot at a time. And we'll see what happens. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports |
