Quick Quotes

Q. Prior to the suspension today, how were you feeling on the golf course?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I was feeling all right. I wasn't playing my best, but I was kind of hanging in there. I was looking forward to giving myself some opportunities at the end, but then the horn went off.

Q. What's it like when you're as far through your round as you are, you get to late in the day, what does that do at this point as you're trying to go out tomorrow and win the FedExCup?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I mean, I think you kind of get into the rhythm of the round and then the horn goes off, it definitely stinks and nobody wants to deal with that, but I think it's just part of it.

Then going into tomorrow, just keep doing what I've been doing all week and just go out and try to play good golf.

Q. How much were you paying attention to the movement in the leaderboard today?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I didn't really see much at all. I was kind of trying to stay in my own little world. Still with a 72-hole event I think it's still pretty early in the tournament, and right now I think we're all just kind of jockeying for position and I was just out there trying to hit some quality shots, so it doesn't do me too well to be paying attention to what other people do.

Q. What does tomorrow look like for you in terms of preparation?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Just go home and get some sleep and food -- sorry, food and then sleep, and in the morning I'll go through my normal warmup like it's a regular tee time.

Q. What's it like when you have to complete that round? I'm sure you've been in this situation before, but on a final Sunday of the conclusion of the PGA TOUR season?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Yeah, I haven't been in that position before, but it'll be a little new. But at the end of the day, it's still a golf tournament and I've been in some intense situations this year, the Masters definitely being one of them and the other three tournaments and kind of the start-stop of the Match Play would definitely be something that would be similar to tomorrow. Even though they're going to be playing less golf in the morning.

But I've got kind of a good routine that I go through in between rounds, and it looks like we'll have a bit of a buffer.
