Quick Quotes

Q. So in a match that's all square or tied, is it a little easier to have a break than it would be if you were up or down?

DEVON BLING: I don't know. It's just been a long day. Everybody I'm sure is tired, but everybody is going to go back, get some rest, and we're all going to be fresh tomorrow morning.

I think either way it's going to be a battle all the way until the end.

Q. Your match has gone back and forth, back and forth. What's the emotions of a rollercoaster match like that?

DEVON BLING: It's fun. Just typical match play. Anything can happen. You could be out of position and win a hole or tie a hole out of nowhere.

You know, that's just the way match play is. I'm sure it's going to be more of that if I go on this week.

Q. Is it easier to know that the day is done and you can go from here now rather than waiting around to see if you're going to play anymore?

DEVON BLING: Yeah, yeah, definitely. It was good that they called it for the day at 6:40. Go get some dinner, get some rest, because we're going to be out here early tomorrow morning.

I think it's good that they called it. It wouldn't have been fun to sit here until 7:30 and go out for another shot and come back in, so I think that was the right call.
