WASTE MANAGEMENT PHOENIX OPEN


February 5, 2016


Danny Lee


Scottsdale, Arizona

A flash interview with:

DANNY LEE

Q. Talk about today. How would you characterize it I thought it was pretty solid.
DANNY LEE: Yeah, I got really good start, I guess. I shot 4-under on the back 9. I started off with the back first.

I actually got really lucky off the tee at hole 12, the par-5. No, 13. Straight out of the rough, I had a nice lie and hit that shot to about 25 feet. I made easy birdie there, I think. That kind of got my momentum going.

Q. How tough was the course today with the wind? And the rough is tough.
DANNY LEE: Yeah, wind was definitely in play today. It was a little bit different than yesterday. The greens being so firm, you kind of forced to hit driver at tee shot. You want to hit a shorter club on second shot.

I drove it well today and was very, very pleased with my round.

Q. We talked about this a lot. Since your win, you're playing with a lot of confidence. Heading to this weekend, you've got to be pretty psyched. You're in good shape.
DANNY LEE: I am. And it looks like if I get lucky enough I get to play with my friend Rickie. That's going to be a whole fun day.

Q. You enjoy that?
DANNY LEE: I love it.

Q. 9-under par through two rounds. Comments on your round today.
DANNY LEE: Obviously I'm very pleased with my round today. 5-under out here is a really good score.

It was really windy at the start. I guess it didn't affect me that much. I was 4-under after 9. I was very pleased with my front 9. Then I made another birdie on the back 9. It was a good solid 5-under round.

Q. I don't think you have played the weekend out here before?
DANNY LEE: Yeah, it was actually first time I got to play on the weekend, and I'm very happy about it. I'm in a good spot for playing the weekend, as well. I'm very psyched.

Q. What is the practical joke related to Rickie?
DANNY LEE: At the moment we are just waving a white flag at each other, having a rest at the moment, but I can feel a big one coming up from Rickie.

Q. So you're not going to do anything this weekend to try to blow him off?
DANNY LEE: Try not to.
