RBC CANADIAN OPENJuly 22, 2010Stephen AmesTORONTO, ONTARIO Q. How did you play today? STEPHEN AMES: Played well. Conditions were as expected in the afternoon, a little tougher than they were this morning. I think it shows with the scoring, a lot of the good scores were in the morning, only because the greens got a little bumpy. There's 156 guys out there. But the course played nice. I thought it played very fair. Q. (Indiscernible)? STEPHEN AMES: Yeah. Without a doubt. I'm happy with the way things have started, should I say. I was comfortable with certain things. But I think that was my goal was to try and get as comfortable as I could over the golf ball before I actually pulled the trigger, and I think I accomplished my goal. Q. The U.S. Open, (indiscernible). What's the difference between bermuda and poa? STEPHEN AMES: The difference is there isn't bends in between. This is pure poa. And there's no -- Q. Patches. STEPHEN AMES: -- patches. This is pure poa, in certain respects that they made there at Pebble. Q. Are you surprised at 6-under? STEPHEN AMES: I was surprised how many good scores there are. The greens are very receptive. They're soft. And I think as the week goes on, it's probably going to get a little firmer. I think the fairways are getting firmer. It won't be long before the next couple days I'm sure the greens will get faster. Q. If it doesn't rain. STEPHEN AMES: If it doesn't rain. I know. Then it's a different golf course again. Q. (Indiscernible)? STEPHEN AMES: Yeah. Just a bit. Yeah. As you just noticed there on 18, the ball only advanced 20 yards. So that tells you how thick it is. It's a little too thick in spots, and I think they know that. They're trying to address it, which is good. Q. If it rains, where could they put pins tomorrow? STEPHEN AMES: Probably close to the front. Yeah. Probably next to the fence, because the greens are going to get slower. They're going to force them to go a little closer to the edge. Some are there already. But no, the golf course is set up nicely, played very nicely. It was a fun Canadian Open first day. End of FastScripts |
