The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island

Quick Quotes

JOHN DEVER: Welcome back to the 2021 PGA Championship here at The Ocean Course in Kiawah Island, South Carolina.

We are with Emiliano Grillo. Emiliano posted an even round 72, 5-over for the championship. Pretty solid play today. Looking at your card here, maybe just tell us a little bit how much tougher is the back nine than the front nine.

EMILIANO GRILLO: Definitely two different golf courses. There's a lot of character to the front nine and then back nine is a little bit more boring. It's either downwind or straight into the wind.

It's a lot of strategy in the first three or four holes on the back nine and then it's just holding on and hitting 4-irons or hybrids and 2-irons, whatever you have. It's really tough. The last four holes are definitely really tough, and it's almost like you want to make your score on the first 13 holes and then just hold on.
