Quick Quotes

Q. Tough, tough day out there, it top five finish, spot in The Open. You must be fairly pleased.

BYEONG HUN AN: Yeah, definitely. The Open wasn't in my schedule but after the last couple days, all I tried to do is try to play a little better. Struggled a little bit off the tee, tee-to-green the last couple weeks but I'm glad to see that tee-to-green was great this week.

I felt like my swing was back on track. It was a little off the past couple weeks but it's good to see my swing is back on track. Yeah, this is a bonus, extra week, so hopefully I can make the best out of it.

Q. So you have to do laundry now in preparation for next week. That wasn't the plan, was it.

BYEONG HUN AN: No, it wasn't. As soon as I get back, I have to do my laundry and get ready for next week. At least I have a lot of warm clothes that I took from last week. I've got everything just need to do laundry so that will be my whole afternoon.

Q. Your first Open as a pro was at Hoylake, and just getting back there again after a couple years of not playing there?

BYEONG HUN AN: That's great. Like you said, that was my first time at The Open as a pro. I remember the place. It's a great golf course, I feel like it was a little wet that week, a little soft to play. That was my first major cut I think that I made.

So yeah, I'm looking forward to it and hopefully can have a little better finish this year.

Q. The form that you're in this week, you must be fairly comfortable with where your game is going into a big week like that, and also the FedExCup Playoffs?

BYEONG HUN AN: Yeah, this was good preparation. The Open wasn't in my mind but after all of this, it was good preparation playing the links course the week before and the jet-lag everything and, and going to FedEx, I guess I've been playing decent golf this year. Hopefully I can keep this up and play a little better.
