JOHN DEERE CLASSIC


August 11, 2016


Andrew Loupe


Silvis, Illinois

Q. How dark was it out there?
ANDREW LOUPE: It was puttable, but Marino decided not to putt and I'm on the same line as him, and the green looked a little choppy and there was a lot of footsteps and moisture, so I figured it was in my best interest to just start with a putt tomorrow morning on some smooth greens.

Q. How much do you have left on that one?
ANDREW LOUPE: Seven, eight feet.

Q. It was a heck of a day I gather.
ANDREW LOUPE: Yeah.

Q. What's the key to this round?
ANDREW LOUPE: It was fun. I thought Wayne did a really good job caddying. Just kind of kept me going, kept me confident. Felt like I hit a good bit of fairways. I was able to -- haven't had a lot of time to think back, but I would imagine that my proximity was decent. I think I had some good looks, and I was able to knock a few in.

Q. With as long as the delay went on for you, are you glad you got in as many holes as you did today?
ANDREW LOUPE: Yes. I was fortunate. I haven't looked at the forecast after the round for tomorrow, but before the round it didn't look great. I don't know if that's changed. I obviously can't control that. But I was pleased with how many we got in being able to almost get in 15 holes teeing off at 4:20 p.m. It's about what I thought, maybe one hole more than I thought, but I was just glad that we were able to get out there and play some golf.

Q. Could you have stopped after 14 and you decided to keep going?
ANDREW LOUPE: They blew the horn after I hit my tee shot. It was something I wanted to do anyway. I just tugged it. I'm not going to hit every one like I want to and got it back in play, wedged it up there, and we'll see if I can roll it in tomorrow.

Q. You were really playing some terrific golf last week.
ANDREW LOUPE: Yes, thank you. I was playing well. I feel like I'm making some progress. It didn't shake out the way I wanted it to, but you know what, I'm here to go at it again. I'm not going to lay down. Golf is hard, and 14 and a half holes is not very much. There's 72 of them. I'm not going to get caught up in all that. I think I got caught up a little bit last week. I'm just not going to do it this week. I'm just going to keep my head down and keep playing.
