Quick Quotes

TOM HOGE: 16, 17, 18 I'd like to have back, but it was a good day and hopefully I can keep going.

Q. Despite the bogey at 7 you were able to get it up-and-down out of the sand and that was kind of a good break because we know the water is right there left of that green at 8.

TOM HOGE: Yeah, I just pulled it a little bit. Tough shot because it's always a bail-out right and it's a tough up-and-down from over there right, as well. I was fortunate I was a really good lie and a little bit of an up slope in the bunker for a pretty tight short-sided sand shot there, but it was a good save.

Q. It's got to be special for you to play professional golf on the PGA TOUR in the Carolinas.

TOM HOGE: Yeah, I was born in North Carolina, and I always seem to play well down here, so I always enjoy being back, especially this week here at Hilton Head is always a great week.

Q. Would you just run through the 9th hole one more time for me?

TOM HOGE: Yeah, I hit a 4-iron off the tee and pulled it a little bit left, and if you're not in the center of that fairway you can get blocked out pretty fast, so I was a little bit nervous, but we got up there and I had a pretty clear look where I was back far enough I could get over the trees in front of me. I had a nice full 56-degree wedge in, hit it to about five, six feet, made a nice putt, so it was a good way to end.
