CHRYSLER CLASSIC OF GREENSBORO

October 4, 2006

Carl Pettersson

GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA: Pre-Round

TODD BUDNICK: We thank Carl Pettersson for stopping by the 2006 Chrysler Classic at Greensboro.

Carl, your fourth start here. You made the cut in your first three and progressively 85th, T 35, T 11.

Could a victory be next here this year?

CARL PETTERSSON: You never know. I hope so. Played pretty good last week. Played pretty good today. You never know but, hopefully, just go out and try my best and see what happens.

TODD BUDNICK: Talk a little about the course. You just had a chance to play it. Give us conditionwise. Also, you've also been a very good fall player. You've had some good finishes last two years.

Just talk about that, how the two go hand in hand.

CARL PETTERSSON: I think the course is nice. Greens are good and same layout we had last three, four years and I don't know why I seem to play well in the fall. I don't know why but I do.

It takes me awhile to get going maybe but this year I played good in the beginning of the year so I hope I can have one of my good fall finishes and play well for the four tournaments.

TODD BUDNICK: Picked up your second career victory earlier at the Memorial tournament. Talk about what that did for you.

CARL PETTERSSON: I think it was nice. One victory is nice but when you get the second one it kind of confirms the first victory and just given me a lot of confidence that if I play well, I know I can win.

That's the major part.

TODD BUDNICK: You're 14th on the money list with four weeks to go. Does the Top 10 a place you've won already. You're in the Tour Championship.

What goals do you have left this year?

CARL PETTERSSON: Well, I'd like to try to win again but it's so difficult in golf to win. Tiger has been winning every week. I've got a little miniature goal, try to finish Top 10 on the money list and play well the rest of the year and see what happens.

TODD BUDNICK: Have any questions?

Q Carl, over the time that you spent high school and in college in North Carolina, were you able to play Forest Oaks a lot, some?

CARL PETTERSSON: No. I've only played it a couple times before this tournament. I enjoy playing it. I can't quite remember too much of it. But I actually skipped high school and come back here and watch the guys.

Q When you were at "Grimsley", were you a pretty big guy? Did the football coach every ask you to come out for the team?

CARL PETTERSSON: No. I was too involved in golf already. I started there my junior year and I was pretty serious in my golf at that time so I just concentrated on one support. Kind of glad I did.

Q The people that are playing with you today, were they college friends?

CARL PETTERSSON: Sir?

Q The people that played with you in the Pro Am, were they college friends?

CARL PETTERSSON: Today? No.

TODD BUDNICK: Anything else for Carl? Alright. Thanks for stopping by.
