Q. Difference in the conditions from yesterday afternoon to now?
STEVE ALLAN: I think not a whole lot. I think yesterday it got very windy but only for last three or four holes. And today there's a bit of breeze in there, swirls around a little bit, but it has not been too strong. The first nine there was not much wind at all. It was perfect scoring conditions, really.
Q. When you see someone like Stuey winning twice in quick succession, does that say to you, "I should be able to do that," or is that really irrelevant to your career?
STEVE ALLAN: Yes and no. I think I played a few practice rounds with Stuey and I think everyone would agree that he's got a lot of talent, when you see his swing his putting stroke and everything, his length; that he really should be sort of one of best players in the world.
Also I feel like my game could get to that level. It's been improving slowly the last few years. Hopefully I can continue to so that I can be there before.
But to do that, I have to be up there a hell of a lot more often than once or twice year. I have to be up there consistently.
Q. Which part of his game do you see specifically that are better than yours?
STEVE ALLAN: Just consistency more than anything. I think, you know, when I'm playing well, I feel like I can match up with the best players. But I don't do it often enough. And someone like Ernie or Vijay or Tiger if they are in contention, I would not imagine they would be feeling particularly uncomfortable or nervous. But if you only do it two or three times a year, you're pretty nervous. To get up there more often and get used to it and consistently have a chance to win, you're going to break through eventually, and hopefully more often than not. I think you just have to put yourself in position a lot.
JOHN BUSH: Steve, keep it going this weekend. Thanks for coming by.
