March 23, 2018
Austin, Texas
Q. Not the way you wanted it to end.
RORY McILROY: Especially after what happened last week, that takes it out of you being in contention, and all that mental energy. So, I wish I was hanging around for the weekend. But I'll rest up and get a little bit of work in before going to Augusta.
Q. Last week was obviously two tales, wasn't it?
RORY McILROY: Yeah, it was. It was tiring. And obviously going from winning on Sunday to traveling on Monday, and getting an early practice on Tuesday to play on Wednesday, didn't have a lot of time to sort of recharge the batteries. I feel like my game is in good shape. I got off to a bit of a scrappy shot today. I was 2-under on the back nine and trying to press, and Brian just played really, really well.
Q. (Inaudible.)
RORY McILROY: Yeah, we golf. Obviously a couple of days extra at home, that I wasn't planning on. But, yeah, just chill out, rest up a little bit, recharge the batteries, get into the gym. Sort of have a good week training and a good practice week. And just get myself ready for Augusta.
Q. You're excited about it?
RORY McILROY: I'm excited about it, it should be good.
Q. Is this just the nature of the beast that in match play anything can happen?
RORY McILROY: Yeah, it is what it is. Yeah, as soon as I went dormie I knew that that was it for me, no matter what happened this the match. Obviously I tried to lay as good as I could. And to end with a bit of pride. I left myself behind the 8-ball after losing that first match, and scraped it back little bit.
Brian played great today. He made a few birdies and didn't really make a mistake.
Q. (Inaudible.)
RORY McILROY: I'm going up on Wednesday and Thursday. Me and Harry are going up, two members are hosting us, we're going to have a couple of social runs Wednesday and Thursday.
Q. It would have been nice to get some weekend work here?
RORY McILROY: I'm on a flight straight.
Q. It would have been nice to get some weekend work in here.
RORY McILROY: On the range. Yeah, it would have been, but it is what it is.
