WGC HSBC CHAMPIONSOctober 29, 2017Brooks KoepkaShanghai, China Q. Despite a not-so-good start, in the middle of the round, you had a few birdies. How was it for you in the tough conditions? BROOKS KOEPKA: Yeah, obviously it was tough. The wind was blowing pretty hard. The short putt, I don't know if that was a lack of concentration. To be honest with you, I got over the putt and I didn't really trust where it was lined up. I was actually lined up correct the first time and I didn't think it was. Kind of righted the ship there in the middle, and then that double; it's hard. The wind gusts sometimes in one direction and then it goes in another. You know, a little bit disappointing way to finish, but I guess it's all right. Q. What exactly happened on 15 for you? BROOKS KOEPKA: 15, the wind gust -- it was blowing straight down for us and all of a sudden it came in off the right. That's why you saw Dustin and myself come up ten and 15 yards short. We were playing left of the pin a little bit, and it would have been just fine if it didn't gust like that. Then obviously it plugged, and when it was on the fringe, it actually took a massive hop right off the putter face and didn't have any speed to it. And then obviously the four-footer was tricky enough. Q. The last few holes, did you feel like you had chances to make birdies to maybe try to create -- BROOKS KOEPKA: Yeah, I thought so. I thought the one on 16, I should have -- I felt like I actually hit a really good putt. It just didn't go in. And then, you know, it was kind of -- and then 18, it's hard to get there with that wind and actually have a good chance. You know, I hit a good 3-wood in there. I made a decent birdie. But a little disappointed the way I played over the last two days, but that's fine. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
