CIALIS WESTERN OPEN

July 4, 2004

Mark Hensby

LEMONT, ILLINOIS

Q. Talk about your round today.

MARK HENSBY: Not real good. You know, I struggled from the getgo.

The wind was tough, though. The first four holes I didn't hit a bad shot and I was 2-over par. I mean, it was tough out there.

Q. How about the emotions of being in the last group, being in contention? You seemed like you were pretty loose.

MARK HENSBY: I felt all right. As I said, I think if it was calmer out there, it might have been a little different. As I said, the first four holes I didn't hit a bad shot, and I'm 2-over par, and I was like, what do you do? Just judging the wind was hard.

Then I got on the back 9 and made one swing and hit it in the hazard and made double. But I still felt if I made a few birdies coming in, I might have a chance, but he was on.

Q. Tell us a little bit about 13. The wind must have really made it --

MARK HENSBY: Yeah, I drove it in the fairway perfect. I had the ball way below my feet. I was standing there going, 5, 6, 5, 6. I tried to hit a little 5 and duffed it and made a double.

Q. With the wind blowing a different direction, did you change your whole philosophy from what you did yesterday?

MARK HENSBY: Oh, no doubt. It was difficult. Even 10 today, I thought I hit a great shot in there. I had just birdied 8 and 9, and I thought I hit a great shot in 10 and it ended up being in the back bunker and buried. I mean, I had 118 yards and I hit my 112-yard club full, and it was over the back. It was just so hard to judge. I think that's why 10-under won. It was just so hard.

Q. (Inaudible).

MARK HENSBY: Not really. It doesn't matter.

Q. Is this one of the tougher days that you've played here in a tournament?

MARK HENSBY: Oh, no doubt. It's one of the toughest I've ever played on a golf course that demanding. I mean, there's no room for error. You know, my short game was so good today that I just kind of hung in there. It's been good all week, and that's the only way I've been there is because of short game. I didn't I really didn't have any positive decisions made out there, that's for sure.

Q. (Inaudible).

MARK HENSBY: It was a great experience. I mean, having a chance to play with the winner, Stephen, you don't have to do anything special to win, you just have to be a little bit smarter and a little bit -- not guessing what you're doing out there. You've got to be totally committed to the shot, and that's what he did and that's why he won.
