ABU DHABI HSBC CHAMPIONSHIPJanuary 19, 2018Dustin JohnsonAbu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Q. 64 today, no jet-lag? DUSTIN JOHNSON: No, I felt pretty good out there today. I did everything really well. I mean, 64, it was a pretty easy 64. I hit it really well. I had a lot of great looks. I didn't really hole any putts, really, until I made two nice putts on 17 and 18. But other than that, it was just really solid all day long. Hit a lot of great shots. Had a lot of looks at birdies, which is what I need to do the next two days if I want to have a chance to win on Sunday. Q. Driving it very well. How much are you in love with this great layout? DUSTIN JOHNSON: Yeah, I like the golf course. I did well here last year, and especially using, I got the new M4 in the bag and driving it really well with it. I'm very pleased with it and pleased with all my clubs right now. I've got a lot of confidence and you know, just need to go out tomorrow and put up a low one again. Q. Tommy just described that as the most stress-free 64 he's ever seen. How would you describe it? DUSTIN JOHNSON: It was pretty easy for a 64. I did everything really well. I drove it well. I hit a lot of really good iron shots. Hit a lot of good putts that didn't go in the hole from pretty close range, but all day, I gave myself really good chances for birdies. Yeah, it was pretty stress-free. Q. For you what was the difference between yesterday and today? DUSTIN JOHNSON: I just swung it a little better. I worked on some things on the range this morning. You know, I don't know if it had to do with a little jet-lag or what. I just wasn't feeling that great yesterday, a little stiff. But this morning I got in the gym and then I came out and worked on my game a little bit before we teed off. Yeah, I did everything a lot better today. Q. Got yourself right back in the tournament heading into the weekend. Silly question, but have you got anything to work on? DUSTIN JOHNSON: Just kind of keep doing exactly what I did today, hopefully give myself chances. I'm only four back going into the weekend, so we've still got 36 holes to go. I just need to play some good, solid golf and get myself right back in there for Sunday. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
