TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP BY COCA-COLA


September 20, 2013


Zach Johnson


ATLANTA, GEORGIA

Q.  Just general thoughts of the round today, a bogey‑free round here today.  How was it?
ZACH JOHNSON:  Pretty solid.  I drove it pretty good.  That was really what did it.  Missed maybe‑‑ I hit one bad tee shot that I can recall‑‑ maybe two.
Unfortunately, my putter was‑‑ yeah, I putted well.  I didn't have a lot of great close opportunities to birdie, maybe a handful.  But I putted well.  My lag putting was either really good or really terrible, and I made the ones in the back.
But solid.  I mean, just a solid day.

Q.  How do you look at ‑‑ right nowwhat are you, six back, seven back?
ZACH JOHNSON:  He's got to be 8 to 10.

Q.  He was at 10 under.  You hit 3, right?  So seven.
ZACH JOHNSON:  He's at 9 now?  Six back.

Q.  So how do you look for 36 holes?
ZACH JOHNSON:  I hope he hits a couple of triples, which brings me back in.
No, two more rounds, anything can happen, especially on this golf course.  You get hot.  It's just a matter of‑‑ for me it's a matter of I've got to hit fairways, and I've got to continue to putt well because I'm not a great rough player and I can spin it on the fairways but I can't spin it on the rough.

Q.  You talked about this week being so important because you wanted to play for the Presidents Cup.
ZACH JOHNSON:  Yes.

Q.  Are you getting out of it what you wanted to get out of it?
ZACH JOHNSON:  No doubt.  Solid shots, solid putts.  That's the key this week.  Something that will carry me into my off‑week next week when I practice and something that certainly will carry me into the Presidents Cup.
The Presidents Cup, they put a lot of emphasis on guys playing boring golf, which is no bogeys, that's a good thing.
