TUCSON, ARIZONA
Q. How is your shoulder feeling?
ARRON OBERHOLSER: The more I played in succession, the more sore and tired and fatigued it's gotten. As of now I'm undecided as to whether or not I'm going to the Honda Championship next week. I don't know what I'm doing next week.
Q. You didn't play Pebble, which is obviously one of your favorite tournaments. Was that to sort of rest up?
ARRON OBERHOLSER: Oh, yeah, absolutely. That was to -- I got a cortisone shot on Monday, so the doctor recommended that I not play because of the cortisone shot. So I don't think it's smart to play after a cortisone shot, anyway. So I waited about ten days before I even started hitting little pitches around the green and so on and so forth. I putted, but for the most part I just waited and tried to just get it better, just let it calm down.
Q. Were you at all surprised that you won yesterday?
ARRON OBERHOLSER: Oh, yeah, sure I was a little surprised that I won yesterday. I was surprised that I had -- that I had a lead all day on Mike. I think it was -- considering that was my first competitive walking round since October, you know. So I think that you're right, it surprised me.
Q. And then of course today you get off, unfortunately, to a bad start. It was your second shot you hit into the --
ARRON OBERHOLSER: Yeah, that was just nerves. That was just pure nerves, because right now I still don't -- I've got a good idea where my swing is at but I don't trust it totally.
And then on the second tee, I just said, all right, dude, this is ridiculous. Let's quit being a wimp and start hitting the ball like you know how to. Stripe it off the second tee, hit a good 8-iron in there and ripped that and that was pretty much the story the rest of the day. I hit a lot of good iron shots but just couldn't convert anything. Had a lot of 'tweeners.
