U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP


June 12, 1997


Tiger Woods


BETHESDA, MARYLAND

Q. Talk a little bit about the round today. I know it was a disappointing finish.

TIGER WOODS: Yeah, I didn't play well coming down the stretch. And, obviously, it cost me.

Q. Could you tell us about the round and take us through what happened today?

TIGER WOODS: Played well early. And, somehow hit some bad shots on the back and didn't maybe the putts I needed to make.

Q. Three rounds left. You can recover quite well?

TIGER WOODS: We'll see. I am hitting it well. Made some good putts early. I need to get off to the same start tomorrow and hopefully I will be able to keep it going and get myself in some red numbers tomorrow.

Q. Could you tell us what you hit into 18?

TIGER WOODS: 7-iron.

Q. Did the wind catch it?

TIGER WOODS: I just hit a bad shot.

Q. What happened on 11?

TIGER WOODS: 11, I just hit a wedge again, hit a bad shot. Hit it left, and it flew on the downslope, and.... there it went.

Q. How long was that putt on 18?

TIGER WOODS: About 20 feet.

Q. Can you give us just birdies, bogeys?

TIGER WOODS: No. It is too many.

Q. Obviously, that is not the way you wanted to end the round. What is going through your mind right now?

TIGER WOODS: You don't want to know.

Q. Do you think that this is one of your most disappointing rounds?

TIGER WOODS: I have had some disappointing rounds lately. And, this is one of them.

Q. What are you going to do right now?

TIGER WOODS: I don't know.

Q. I mean, you plan to hit balls or --

TIGER WOODS: I don't know.

Q. How will you try to get ready mentally tomorrow?

TIGER WOODS: I will be all right tomorrow. I will try and figure out what went wrong today, what I did wrong and tomorrow hopefully make some corrections and tomorrow play well. Tomorrow the conditions will be a little bit easier. We will have perfect greens early in the morning. And, hopefully, I will get the putter rolling and make some putts.

Q. Do you feel like this has been something in your swing that --

TIGER WOODS: I don't know. I don't know.

Q. Do you plan to talk to him (Butch Harmon) tonight?

TIGER WOODS: I don't know. Is that it?

Q. Thanks, Tiger.
