Quick Quotes

Q. Came down to the wire there. Talk me through the whole match. You were down 3, win the last couple, and coming to 18.

TOMMY MORRISON: Yeah, the match was great. I think I had opportunities early that I didn't convert on. Back and forth a little bit all day. Will took over there for a little bit in the middle of the round. He chipped in and made a nice birdie there in the middle of the back nine, got it to 3-up and nearly dormie. Made a couple nice pars coming in and was lucky for it to go to 18. I had an opportunity to advance to a playoff there and didn't.

But regardless, Will is a great player. He's young. He's doing great. He played really steady all day. He's going to be tough to beat. Kudos to him.

Q. What are a couple takeaways from the week?

TOMMY MORRISON: Yeah, I love it. Any USGA event is special. The USGA does a great job. The USGA is a special organization. I'm glad I could come back to another U.S. Junior. It's something I wasn't even thinking about six months ago, and thankfully I don't turn 19 for another couple weeks, so I got to play, and I'm so glad I did.

There's a lot to build off of this week, and I had a lot of nice golf this week. I'm happy with where I'm at. I look forward to more USGA events in the future.
