Austin, Texas
Q. You made quite a come back there, to halve the match. What did you do well down the stretch there?
PAT PEREZ: Yeah, I just played more like I had been playing all year. The first 7 holes I just really didn't play well at all. I gave some opportunities back. And he made some birdies. And I screwed up the short driver one, then I should have got up and down on par 5, so should halve. We were back and forth. He made some good holes. I made some bad holes.
And, you know, it's match play. You just never know, you can't threaten. You hope to have a chance and I took advantage of a couple of holes out there and then when he birdied 15, which was a killer, I was really in a hole. But to halve the match is pretty cool. It was pretty lucky for me.
Q. You had that putt to win it at the end, did you think you had a chance to make it and win?
PAT PEREZ: I did think I'd make it. I just hit that -- I was in between clubs up there, and I wanted to hit the sand wedge, but I didn't want to spin it back to where I ended being anyway. I didn't hit the wedge hard enough.
To have a putt in the end and now to look at it I could have won, that would have been unbelievable. But to halve the match is just amazing to me.
