U.S. AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP


August 19, 2016


Jonah Texeira


Bloomfield Hills, Michigan

Q. 3&2 victory, a 6&5 win yesterday, you realize it's not supposed to be this easy out here?
JONAH TEXEIRA: It's just a blessing for how well I'm playing right now. I'm not really making that many mistakes. I kind of just think I only had one or two bogeys yesterday. I've just been consistent, making pars and I have been making the opponent catch me.

Q. Moving on to the semifinals but you only played it into the field as an alternate?
JONAH TEXEIRA: I got the call on Tuesday, three days before I flew up and I was pretty stoked. I didn't think I was going to make it but I was still practicing just in case. I had a little bit of faith in there and to get in was an absolute, like, I don't know, I can't explain it.

Q. Have you mentally recovered, and now you are where you are, you have a local caddie on the bag. What's the best piece of advice?
JONAH TEXEIRA: He's honestly the coolest caddie I've ever met. He leaves me alone when I really don't need him but sometimes when I do need him, he gives me the proper information and that helps me a lot this whole week. He's amazing.

Actually when I got in Saturday, I only played nine holes and I didn't get to play the back ten on South.

I was like, "Do you know the course?"

He's like, "Bro, I got you." It's worked out pretty well so far.
