THE PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP


May 13, 2017


Emiliano Grillo


Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida

Q. Great round today, 5-under today, five birdies. Talk about your round.
EMILIANO GRILLO: I just stayed patient. I hit some great shots coming back, and I think the key today was playing from the fairway.

Q. 17 has got a nice pin placement for you guys today, and you birdied it.
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, I had a perfect distance today, a little bit downwind, and it was a perfect gap wedge. All I had to do was just aim it a little bit right and then make the putt.

Q. 18, tell us how that's playing today. It's kind of a beast, isn't it?
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, it's kind of playing similar to the other days, a little in from the left. I think that's the toughest tee shot on the entire TOUR. It was a good tee shot, a good second shot. I was able to hit a good putt, I just left it a little bit short of the hole.

Q. 14 greens out there in these windy conditions. Talk about that.
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, it definitely got tougher today than the past couple days, but we were able to hit a lot of greens today, and the ones that we missed were right there on the edge or we were able to get a few up-and-downs in there and keep the round going.

Q. You had 99 feet in putts. Were the greens getting crusty at all?
EMILIANO GRILLO: I think the little rain this morning helped a little bit, otherwise it would be as dry as it gets. Not like last year, but it's getting very firm, and hopefully -- we were lucky to have that rain this morning.

Q. Talk me through the 2 at 17.
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, we had a perfect distance. It was 126, a little bit downwind. I hit my 52 about 122, so it was just a full shot in there and just keep it right of the flag, and it was a putt about seven feet.
