ARNOLD PALMER INVITATIONAL PRESENTED BY MASTERCARDMarch 20, 2015Sam SaundersORLANDO, FLORIDA Q. All right. Just kind of talk about the round today and got off to a tough start but -- SAM SAUNDERS: Yeah, yeah, it was weird. I don't know what was going on. I was saying to my caddie, Travis, I wish I had been more nervous. I kind of felt nothing out there for the first 7 holes. I don't know what it was. I couldn't really get my head into it, certainly not for lack of wanting to do well or trying, I just -- I don't know. I was in a fog a little bit and then I was kind of in a really bad spot on 8. The realization hit me, "If you make another bogey here this thing could get out of control quick." And I hit kind of an all or nothing shot on 8 that would have been really bad if it didn't -- if I didn't put pull it off. Ended up making par there, stayed patient and played the kind golf I'm playing. I'm having a real issue with my driver right now. In fact, I didn't hit it on the back-9. Well, I hit it on 12, the par 5. That was the last time I hit. Wasn't even close to hitting the fairway. I hit 3-woods the rest day including on 16, the par 5 and I hit one about 330 there with my 3-wood and 18 I hit 3-wood. I'm hitting my 3-wood further than I was hitting my driver anyway. I don't know what's going on there. I got to figure that out. Playing well and, you know, nice to turn things around and play a good back-9. Q. Are you going to hit the range with the driver tonight? SAM SAUNDERS: I don't know. Might go do that. It's way off. I got to figure something out. I'm not sure if I cracked it or it's something just not right with it. It went from great to terrible all of a sudden. Q. Let's say even last year when you have been able after getting off to that kind start -- SAM SAUNDERS:  I don't think I had the calmness and patience that I do now to finish the back-9 like that. To be honest, you know, I never got too worried out there today, I knew I was -- I know I needed to have a good back-9 to make the cut. I still was trying to focus on more get it to 3, 4-under par and still, you know, 36 holes of golf left. It's a lot of golf and I didn't try to get too far ahead of myself.
