DUSTIN JOHNSON: I felt like I played well today. Just made too many bogeys. It wasn't one thing or the other. Wind got me a couple times. You know, hit some drives that I thought should have ended up better than they did.
Yeah, I mean, it was -- seemed like every -- every time I got just a little bit out of position, I made bogey. Missed quite a few short birdie putts. Missed a couple short par putts. But it was -- overall, I felt like I swung the golf club very well. I drove it well. I putted well. I missed a few short ones. Felt Rickie I rolled it well and where I wanted to, just a couple short ones that I missed.
Q. What is it going to take tomorrow?
DUSTIN JOHNSON: I'm going to need some help from him, and then I'm going to have to play very, very well.
Q. How were conditions?
DUSTIN JOHNSON: The wind was tricky all day. It blew from every direction you can think of throughout the round. It wasn't like it was just a little breeze. It was blowing pretty hard and it definitely picked up in the last how are we were playing.
Q. Can you change your approach --
DUSTIN JOHNSON: There's really nothing you can do on this golf course to change your approach. Drive it in the fairway -- if I drive it in the fairway, I feel like there's no hole I can't attack because if I'm driving it in the fairway and coming out of the fairway, you can control the golf ball. The greens are fairly receptive. Every time I was in the fairway, I hit a shot that, you know, I gave myself a really good look at birdie.
I got a lot of confidence in the irons and I'm driving it well, too. I just need to limit those misses.
Q. If you look at statistically, it's playing a little bit more than a shot harder than it has the rest of the week. Is it the wind or something else?
DUSTIN JOHNSON: I think it was a little bit of everything. Flag locations. Wind, I mean, yeah, it was -- I mean, I thought it was playing difficult. I just -- you know, I bogeyed. I made some bad bogeys. You can't miss a fairway on 2, bogey that hole. I missed a short putt on 10. But coulda, shoulda, woulda, go out and do it tomorrow.
