U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP


June 14, 2019


Jason Dufner


Pebble Beach, California

Q. Well, first of all, right now there's 34 guys within six shots of the lead, and can you kind of talk about that scenario with that much of a logjam?
JASON DUFNER: Yeah, I mean, that will be some exciting golf on the weekend for fans and the players. Seems like anybody that's under par or even is probably going to have a chance. The course is starting to firm up a little bit, get a little bit tougher. Definitely don't anticipate anybody holding a 7-under. Who knows what it will be. But I think it will be lower than that.

So if you go out and shoot a couple under each day, you're going to be right in the thick of it for a championship.

Q. And probably obviously a bit like you got a birdie on 8, coming down the stretch. Could you tell me what happened on that?
JASON DUFNER: I just had a really good number, a good position in the fairway, I had a good number for the iron and hit it in there really close. So that's like stealing a little bit. By they kind of come and go. I had a couple opportunities before that on 7, 5, 6 (indiscernible) slip away, so it was good to get back under in the red for the week.

Q. With such a logjam, I mean, how critical does that make every single opportunity you get like that?
JASON DUFNER: Yeah, I mean, try to tighten it up a little bit on the weekend. Not much I can do what happened Thursday and Friday. I feel like I'm playing some really good golf. I've been close to shooting 2- to 4-under every day (indiscernible).

I love the golf course. I think it's going to be get firmer and faster, which I think will help me. And just got to tighten it up a little bit, limit those mistakes and throw in some birdies. It's pretty gettable there on the first seven holes. So got to get off to a good start.
