DP WORLD TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP, DUBAINovember 17, 2017Patrick ReedDubai, United Arab Emirates Q. You've been working very, very hard on your ball-striking. How would you compare today's performance to yesterday? PATRICK REED: Completely different. Today I didn't quite hit it as well as yesterday. Seems like yesterday when I hit it really solid, it was really close to the hole. Today it felt like when I hit it really solid, it was that 15- to 18-foot range. Pins were a little tougher. It was harder to get the ball as close as I wanted. The main thing is, I mean, 14 greens yesterday, ten greens today, and then the big factor is the fairways. I didn't hit as many fairways today unlike yesterday. It seemed like today on some of the holes when I missed the fairway, I missed in the wrong spots where I was completely dead, couldn't get it to the green and had to scramble for 60 or 80 yards and put myself in a spot. Where if you hit the fairway, you have a chance of getting it really close to the green instead of laying up to a narrow fairway and knocked it in the water. There were a couple mental mistakes that I needed to clean up but all in all it was pretty close. It wasn't too far off. I just need that putter to continue working. I missed too many putts today. Q. Only three back heading into the weekend. Still a lot of golf to play but in contention, what mentality do you bring to Saturday and Sunday? PATRICK REED: Just continue to do what I'm doing. You know, I'll go back and do some drills in the room. Might go out and hit a couple balls here when I get done with this. Really just reset the patterns and get back to how I was hitting the ball yesterday and how I was hitting it a couple days before. You know, it's there. Working so hard to get in the correct position; that feels a little uncomfortable. There's going to be days when you revert back to the old habits. I just need to put in a lot of reps and groove it.
