U.S. SENIOR OPEN


June 27, 2019


Vijay Singh


Notre Dame, Indiana

Q. Safe to say that you had a interesting start?
VIJAY SINGH: Safe to say I wasn't feeling the best when I got here, but I warmed up well and I hit some good shots and made some nice putts in the first few, and just kept it going.

Q. This golf course, anything in particular you like about it, the setup?
VIJAY SINGH: Well, they're small greens, so if you hit a decent iron shot, you're going to have a decent putt for birdie. Although the front side is a little bit more undulating than the back.

But a good start like this can kind of keep you going, keep your blood flowing. I didn't play poorly. I hit some squirrelly shots, but got away with it, you know. Hit a lot of good shots, too.

Q. You're not out of position --
VIJAY SINGH: No, it's the first day, so...
