Quick Quotes

Q. I know this isn't the way you wanted to see it end. But talk about your week and how well you did play though.

SAHITH THEEGALA: Yeah, it was a fantastic week. I played some really good golf and just a little unfortunate how that sort of that back nine is, but it's my first one and first time really being in that position, so I'm obviously going to learn a lot and just take so many positives away and even the last few holes there I was proud of myself how I held it in there making a couple pars after I was already kind of out of contention, but overall fantastic week and just want to thank Steve Jent tournament director, he's putting on a great event and just glad I could come back.

Q. One positive, you won't have to play that Monday qualifier in the morning. How big is that just knowing that you're in Vegas now and also bringing a lot of confidence into that week?

SAHITH THEEGALA: So big. I mean, obviously Monday qualifiers are never fun, I've been down that road, so I'm glad I won't have to do that next week. It will be nice being close to home too, I can kind of reset a little bit, maybe even go home if necessary. But, yeah, it's going to be great, I'm probably going to take tomorrow off and kind of reset and I'm excited to get back at it, this makes me hungrier and hungrier.

Q. When you take tomorrow off what will you reflect upon this week, what you did well, what you maybe would learn from this?

SAHITH THEEGALA: Yeah, I think I'm going to talk with my coach and just look at some stuff, not get too in depth on it because I'm pretty, I think I know what I need to work on and what I need to do moving forward. But again I did so much good stuff this week and just try and build off the really good stuff and keep learning. A lot of it was mental today, it wasn't even my game at all. So knowing that it's pretty cool, but, yeah, it will be nice to have a day to kind of reflect over the week because it happened so quick.
