Quick Quotes

Q. Nice 65 today. Can you take us through your round and what was working for you today?

JACOB BRIDGEMAN: Yeah, I hit it really well. I didn't really take too many risks. Felt like I just played solid and conservative all day and then made some putts towards the end.

Pretty pleased with 6-under. The wind is blowing a little bit, so I think it was a good one.

Q. How was the wind out there on the Bear Trap? We've been talking about there are some holes on the front nine that are a little challenging, as well, that maybe rival the Bear Trap depending on the day.

JACOB BRIDGEMAN: Yeah, I feel like during the Bear Trap it wasn't really too bad. The wind wasn't blowing that hard, but the trickiness was that it was kind of changing from southeast to south, so it was kind of going from in to down. Obviously that can play 10 or 20 yards different.

No. 17 was tricky. The wind is kind of shielded by the stands. There's one flag to look at. You can't really tell what's going on.

Q. What's been the difference -- obviously not a result you wanted last week in Mexico but you're playing really well this week. Are you working on anything?

JACOB BRIDGEMAN: Yeah, on Monday and Tuesday I worked with my swing coach on just getting my sequence down. My swing looked nice. I was looking at videos and couldn't really tell what was going on because everything looked good from my eye, but he looked at it and said my sequence was a little off, had to get some weight moving the right way, and it took a couple comments, and on Monday and Tuesday it kind of clicked, and I started hitting it better.
