BENTON HARBOR, MICHIGAN
Q. What was different today compared to yesterday?
KENNY PERRY: The good lord woke me up this morning, that was the difference.
No, I hit it fine yesterday. I hit two loose shots yesterday. I hit a driver on 18 into the hazard right and made double.
I pulled an 8‑iron left on a hole and made a big number, I think.
But other than that, I struck the ball beautifully, like I did today. I putted lousy all week. I hit a lot of really good golf shots this week and I just can't get the speed of the greens. I either hit it too easy or too hard, I just can't seem to find the rhythm on the greens.
But I hit all the par‑5s on the course today. Except 5 I couldn't get to it, but other than that is, I took care of the par‑5s today and just made one birdie on another hole.
Q. Do you feel like depending upon what the leaders do, you're going to have a shot tomorrow?
KENNY PERRY: Well, there's no wind out there, it's very getable. I don't see the leaders backing up, I really don't. I think what I'm going to need to do is shoot another 62, like I did two years ago on Sunday and that would get me in the ballpark, I think.
I think somebody is going to get it to 8‑ or 9‑under, I really do. I could be wrong. They may not. And if they back up and they get me right in my wheelhouse, I can shoot that good.
So at least I've got a shot. At least I shot a number today to put me in some kind of position to maybe, if I shoot one of those miracle rounds tomorrow, I can do it.
Q. How dejected were you yesterday after the 75?
KENNY PERRY: Well, it was just a tough deal. I played okay. I really wasn't too upset. I went and grabbed me something to eat and went to bed, slept nice and just ‑‑ it's just golf. That's just all it is. It was just a day I couldn't make ‑‑ I couldn't turn it around, I couldn't make things happen.
Today, I never missed a shot. And I hit it perfect today. I lipped out four putts today. I could have shot four better. I had four rim out pretty hard on me. And they were like from eight to 10 feet, they weren't that far putts either. I hit it nice today. So if I can just do that again tomorrow, maybe I can put a little pressure on them.
