WGC ACCENTURE MATCH PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP


February 22, 2012


Brandt Snedeker


MARANA, ARIZONA

Q.  Talk about the match.
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  It was crazy.

Q.  Talk about the battle.
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  It was a battle.  I played really well early and missed a few putts and kind of kept Retief in the ball game.  He won three straight holes on me and I was down.  It some poor iron shots coming in and was able to save some pars.
I was 1‑down on the 18 tee and I knew it had to be a birdie and did to extend it.  I made some good clutch putts on 1, 2, and 3, and then the par on 3 was kind of a gift from Retief.  First really kind of bad swing he made in a while.

Q.  Let's go through 18.
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  18, he hit 3‑wood and laid back.  I had driver and took over the bunker and had 115 in.  I hit a sand wedge to about six feet.  He hit it right, chipped it up about eight feet, so I got to see the line on the putt.  He missed it and I made it.

Q.  There's a fine line in this tournament in maybe going on Wednesday and then ‑‑
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  Yeah, there is.

Q.  It's kind of good to get over the hump on this side of it?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  It is.  You know you are going to have close matches.  There is just no way if you are going to be here for all six of them.  So to get a close one under my belt and know that I was able to get the shots when I needed to gives me confidence going into tomorrow.
I know I'm playing good, I just had kind of a bad 3‑ or 4‑hole stretch.  Looking forward to going out there tomorrow and shooting something low.
