U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP


June 16, 2019


Chesson Hadley


Pebble Beach, California

Q So, Chesson, congratulations. It looks like a top 10 in a major. How do you feel about that?

CHESSON HADLEY: Incredibly pleased. You know, I had some really good stuff today. My long -- my -- all week I played great. I kind of felt like I was clicking. Just didn't get the job done as far as getting close to the lead, too many mistakes, obviously. But certainly very pleased with the way I played, the first top -- I'm going to go ahead and say it, first top 10 in a major, and, you know, that's something to build on.

I was -- I felt much more comfortable today than I did yesterday. And part of that is just because I was -- did what I did yesterday. So I'm just really pleased with the way I played. And I'm very tickled.

Q How do you feel about the setup?

CHESSON HADLEY: It's a 10. 10 out of 10. I mean, the USGA couldn't have done any more or less. At the end of the day, the course is just -- I feel like anybody can play well here, a long hitter, a short hitter. And I don't -- even if it was harder, I think Gary would probably still have been leading. And I think all the people that would have been there would still be there. I don't think that would have changed much.

But I think the USGA has just knocked it out of the park. I mean, it's Pebble Beach. This place is just a miracle, and I love it. So I think -- I haven't played in too many of these, but I get to come back here -- get to play Winged Foot next year. I am already in that. So that's exciting. So, yeah, really, really proud of this week.

Q With the success you had this week, is there something in particular you feel you need to work on to take that next step?

CHESSON HADLEY: Yeah, just need to continue to -- I need to keep dialing in the driver. I mean, I did a lot of really good things this week. The putter was cold for about 15 holes today unfortunately. I could have really made a move and probably been top 3 or so if I -- you know, if I had made a few putts that I should have been.

But I'm not disappointed in that or anything. I'm just very pleased with the way I played and hung in there and did a lot of good things.
