FARMINGDALE, NEW YORK
Q. Talk about your round today.
GREG CHALMERS: Yeah, I've been driving the ball beautifully all week. I drove the ball really nicely again today. First time in my career, the first two days I was No. 1 in driving fairways. I've never done that before it's a good golf course to do it on. Today I made some key putts for pars and birdies. The greens are getting really baked, very firm and very tricky from six and eight feet.
Q. Are the speeds different? A lot of 3‑putts that are awkward for touring professionals?
GREG CHALMERS: I know 8 was ridiculously quick at the back there. I had 20 feet that I rolled six feet by and Bubba 4‑putted from 30 feet. It was like glass back there. There are a couple that are slightly faster than others. It's just really baked in some areas, and they put the pin there, it's another foot and a half faster yes.
Q. If you were the public that lived in New York, would you want to play this place on Monday?
GREG CHALMERS: Yeah, but I love a challenge (chuckling). I think it would be good for them to see how difficult it is, because this is a great test right now. The only thing missing from a U.S. Open is about half an inch of rough. You'd better drive in play or you're in trouble.
Q. Pleased with your start for the week? Good to get off to a good start in these things?
GREG CHALMERS: Yeah, at this time of the year in the Playoffs, it's about playing well right now. I'm thrilled with the position I'm in right now and I have to go out and play well tomorrow. I'm really excited about where things are going at the most.
