SONY OPEN IN HAWAII


January 14, 2018


James Hahn


Honolulu, Hawaii

Q. You played so well today. At any point, was it exhaustion? You start to lose concentration. Or is it just -- I know you wanted to go left on 18 and it didn't. Was that a surprise to you, the last playoff hole?
JAMES HAHN: Yeah. I mean, I didn't make any good strokes coming down the stretch. I know you have to make a putt to win this thing. That's going to hurt a little bit. It was six feet. We just basically misread it. I knew it was going to go right, and we played it pretty straight, and it went right. Didn't make a good stroke.

Anyway, same as the last hole. Undecided on the par putt really, and any time you have indecision, you don't really put a good stroke on it. It's unfortunate how it turned out.

Q. You played wonderful. It was a great day, 62. You must take a lot of good things away from Hawaii right now for the rest of the season.
JAMES HAHN: Yeah. No, it's going to hurt. It's bittersweet. Any time you have a chance to have an opportunity to win, especially on the last hole, six feet. All you had to was put a good stroke on it, and unfortunately I didn't. That's going to hurt for a little bit. Granted, I made a lot of birdies today, but disappointed on how I finished.

Q. James with his daughter Kylie. That always makes the disappointment go away, I'm sure. I want to talk about your day before we get into the playoff. What attitude did you bring into this golf course trailing by seven to put yourself in a position too win?
JAMES HAHN: Just keep my head down and kept grinding. Made a lot of putts early on, kind of kept the momentum going. Five in a row definitely helped out a lot. Started feeling it coming down the stretch. Luckily birdied two coming in and didn't make any on the last three. That's kind of where it went wrong. But made a lot of birdies today. So I'm happy with how it finished.

Q. I know you're going to replay the playoff, the six holes in your head. As you look back on those holes, how would you describe your performance?
JAMES HAHN: Terrible. Had opportunities to win, didn't pull it off. For me, I'm a competitor. I'm a grinder. Love to compete. I hate losing. It's going to push me to be better. Definitely happy with how I played, especially with this little one in my arms, but the overall assessment, I need to get better.
