HUMBLE, TEXAS
Q. Another good bogey-free round, solid play.
CHARLES HOWELL III: Well, it was a nice finish. Probably not quite good enough for what I need to go to Augusta, but you know, I played well. I gave myself a chance.
Q. Great effort.
CHARLES HOWELL III: It was a good effort, but unfortunately good efforts don't get that invitation to Augusta, so, I played well. I gave myself a chance out there, and I thought I needed probably 8-under today and that looks like that may be correct.
Q. Will you allow yourself to look back here or there, whether this week or previous weeks and say if I had done just something a little bit different?
CHARLES HOWELL III: No, because I played well this year. I'm not going to go down the road of disappointment. I played good. I would love to be in the golf tournament, so would 300 million other golfers. I can't -- you know, I played well this year and, you know, I'm going to watch the tournament on TV. It's just horrible to watch on TV, to be honest.
Q. Any thoughts about -- I know you're not in the field next week. What was the thought process behind that?
CHARLES HOWELL III: Because I thought my best chance of getting in was Top 50 world rank.  I played a ton of golf. I'm a little tired, to be honest. I've played a boat-load of tournaments trying to get into Augusta, and I thought my best chance was Top 50 world rankings for this week and, you know, prepared for it as best I could. So, gave it a shot.
Q. You had the math all figured out in your head before you went out, obviously?
CHARLES HOWELL III: Yeah. I don't know that an MIT grad can figure out the world ranking system, but the best I could tell, it was 4th place or better. So, I figured that, yeah. I figured it would be 13-under, but we'll see.
Q. Was there any good missed opportunities today for more birdies, or did you make everything that was realistic?
CHARLES HOWELL III: There was plenty out there. Golfers always look back at that stuff. It's over now. I had 6-under. Thank you.
