ARNOLD PALMER INVITATIONAL PRESENTED BY MASTERCARD


March 20, 2014


Brandt Snedeker


ORLANDO, FLORIDA

Q.  Course was playing awfully soft?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  It was.  The greens were soft.  You can be aggressive.  The greens are pretty fast.  I hit it really good.  Didn't stress myself and made some huge putts.

Q.  Nice to make one like that on 9, too?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  I kind of hit that first tee shot, those are always great.  Makes up for a few short ones.

Q.  I know you're not one to give other guys the needle out there, I'm sure you haven't got any flack from the players in the locker room?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  Of course not.  I had a few guys whisper stuff in my ears.  But they haven't really started giving it back to me today.

Q.  I know that money doesn't mean that much to you, did you fill out a billion dollar bracket?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  I did not.  I knew I had no chance of winning.  I know so little about basketball right now I couldn't bring myself to fill out a bracket.

Q.  Seemed like you rolled in a few putts today and you kind of kept the round going?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  I hit the ball really good.  I had good looks on the front nine.  I missed a few short ones on the back nine.  I started making putts.  It was rolling good again.  I hit all the par‑3s, which is hard to do.  So hopefully I can keep that golf the rest of the week.

Q.  How would you characterize the first two months of your season?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  Not very good.  It's been a struggle, to say the least.  I'm a pretty quick starter out here on Tour.  The first time in my career I haven't played well to this point.
So it's been tough to stomach.  I'm working hard at it.  I should be able to put it together and I'm getting in my way a little too much.  I feel like I can do a lot of good stuff and look forward to the rest of the week.

Q.  Reaction to Adam, now 10‑under with a couple of holes left?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  Can we ban that putter the rest of this week?  (Laughter)  He's playing unbelievable.  He's one of the best players in the world right now.  I don't think 10‑under is doable for me.  Pretty fun to watch.

Q.  Someone told me you were battling an illness earlier and lost a bit of weight?
BRANDT SNEDEKER:  I kind of like the way I plateaued out.  I've just cleaned up my diet a little bit, trying to get the inflammation down.  Battling that a few years.  And had bad sinuses it feels like for two months.  Tampa did not help.  So I think everybody feels my pain this time of year.
