Quick Quotes
Q. So impressive throughout the first three days of this event. It feels like and looks like you got a different level of confidence. Maybe just at this event where you won twice in this format.
JASON DAY: Yeah, it's hard to explain. You've just got to kind of grind it out. I knew Collin was going to be tough. He wasn't going to give me much. He's a terrific iron player.
I rolled in a couple bombs early. The one on 2 was important, and then the one on 9 was very important just because I was out of position.
It's been really pleasing to see that the game is showing all the good signs. I know I can't get ahead of myself too much because every day is different, especially at a match play event. The guys that have won coming off some confidence, so you can't underestimate anyone.
Q. How about a matchup of the veterans tomorrow? Matt Kuchar will be your opponent in the round of 16?
JASON DAY: I think today he just tied Tiger's record.
Q. He did, 36 wins.
JASON DAY: Yeah, 36 wins. That pretty much says it all. The guy is very straight down the middle, on the green. When he gets hot with a putter, then he's very difficult to beat.
So I kind of have to stay in my own little world tomorrow and just not pay too much attention to him, but really just kind of try my best to finish it early. But if not, I'm going to grind it out.
