U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPJune 15, 2018Brooks KoepkaSouthampton, New York Q. Brooks, a couple bogeys, 12 and 13. Six birdies. That's a great round of golf. How do you feel? BROOKS KOEPKA: I felt like I played really well. It was unfortunate, just hit a few bad drives. And if you do that out here, it's going to penalize you pretty bad. I felt like I was playing solid. My iron play was pretty good. Putting -- the putts were going in. I felt like I hit good putts yesterday. Nothing went in. Where today, they were kind of bouncing in. Obviously, they're a little -- it's poa, so they're going to be a little bouncy. But it was nice to see some go in, and I think I've got these greens a little more figured out today. Q. Put yourself in a great position. BROOKS KOEPKA: Yeah, I mean, obviously, you don't want to be that many back. But it's a U.S. Open, so disaster's always around the corner. You never know what's going to happen. You just keep putting the ball in play, hitting greens and try to sneak in a few birdies when you can. Q. Do you feel like a finish like that, with probably good conditions tomorrow, gives you -- puts you in a place where you have some momentum going forward and a good feel for the course right now where you can make a charge? BROOKS KOEPKA: Yeah. I feel like I've got, you know, some momentum on my side. Obviously, with finishing with, what, six birdies, I played really solid. I felt like I played really solid yesterday. You know, there's nobody more confident here than me. I feel like I'm playing really well. Just need to continue what we're doing. Q. You know D.J. as well as anybody. What will make him hard to catch? BROOKS KOEPKA: This golf course. There's not many birdies. Like I said, there's a disaster around every corner. I mean, all it takes is one shot in the fescue, and you could be in there for a while. But, obviously, you need a good round tomorrow just to give yourself a chance. You know, anything within three shots of the lead on the back nine Sunday, anything can happen. Q. Thanks, Brooks. BROOKS KOEPKA: Thanks. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
