MASTERS TOURNAMENT


April 10, 2015


Dustin Johnson


AUGUSTA, GEORGIA

Q.  (No Microphone.)
DUSTIN JOHNSON:  Yeah, that always works.

Q.  Talk about the round.
DUSTIN JOHNSON:  Well, I got off to a bad start.  I drove it right down the middle and then just hit a bad shot.  Hit it thin out of the middle of the fairway and over the green and made double from there.  Just bad start.
But came back right on 2 there and hit two really good shots and made a great putt, made 3 there.
I played really solid from the rest of the way in.
8's always a‑‑ I was telling my brother, walking up the fairway, you know, just hardly ever hit that green in two.  But coming ‑‑ I hit it right down the middle there and then hit a 3‑iron and just couldn't hit it any better.  Hit it right on the perfect line.  I was just hoping it was the right distance.  When I got up there, obviously, it was pretty close to the hole and made another good putt there.
15, that's always a tough second shot, but I hit a great shot in there to about a foot.  So, that's always a bonus there.

Q.  (No Microphone.)
DUSTIN JOHNSON:  No, I mean, I was coming in here confident about my game.  I've been playing well all year.  This is a golf course that I really like to play.  I have fun out there.
It's always challenging, but if you hit great shots, you can get it close to the hole and you can make a lot of birdies.

Q.  Were you watching the leaderboards and how Jordan was playing?
DUSTIN JOHNSON:  No, I mean, we, I saw that he was playing really well and obviously the big leaderboards out there, you can see it.  So I knew he was at 14.  So, I'm just trying to get as many birdie looks as I can.

Q.  Is that a lot of pressure when you go out when a guy's playing like that or do you just have to stay in your own game and have confidence in your abilities?
DUSTIN JOHNSON:  Yeah, I mean, we still got 36 holes left, so that's a lot of golf.  Anything can happen around here.  It's a fun golf course, it yields a lot of birdies or eagles, but you can make big numbers, too.  So you just never know.
